That said, you can use explain on these things, though you must do a bit
more work:

alvherre=# prepare foo as insert into foo (name) values ($1);
PREPARE
alvherre=# explain execute foo('stan');
                QUERY PLAN
------------------------------------------
 Result  (cost=0.00..0.01 rows=1 width=0)
(1 ligne)

The benefit is that this will use the same plan that Hibernate would be
using, whereas simply expanding the literal in the query would possibly not.
