I think you want to use a Cursor for browsing the data.

RC> Greetings,
RC> We have several tables (in a PG 7.3.3 database on RH Linux 7.3) with 2M+

RC> appears to be attempting to create the whole rowset in Java memory
RC> before returning, and the application runs out of memory. (Java has been
RC> configured to use up to 1.5G on the machine this occurs on.)
RC> Now the SELECT is preceded by a COUNT of the rows that the same query

RC> any configuration options available that modify this behavior? Are there
