Nonetheless, please do it in your test scenario, so we can see if it has
any effect or not.

The speed you're getting works out to about 7.2 msec/row, which would be
about right if every single row fetch caused a disk seek, which seems
improbable unless the table is just huge compared to your available RAM.
