Applied. However, I went the other way: I reduced the 1000 to 100.
I doubt it'll make much difference in performance, and with TOAST
available I can believe people might have multi-megabyte rows.
I also added a cursor CLOSE command, just to be a neatnik. It's
probably not critical given that the same cursor name is used each
time, but still...
