It was suggested by Robert Haas that it would be possible to return
from a query immediately instead of reading the entire result set.
Instead of reading it we just let the O/S buffer the results until we
get around to reading it. Before I go to the trouble of prototyping
this can anyone see a reason why this wouldn't work ?
