Ooo, a cursor. I'll have to look into those. I was thinking I could just
issue "select * from foo" and then only use the first 10 results, but that
seemed like such a waste of time since there's likely to be 100's of
records. Admittedly I'm ignorant of the solution you pose and I'll have to
do some research, but it seems it too might also have the postmaster
return all of the records, of which I would only use 10. Am I wrong?
