The idea is that it takes time to create a new hash, and
it is quicker to just reuse the old hash. If you are
just fetching and processing one record at a time, then
you will benefit.
If you want to save the records (e.g. in an array), then
you should probably be using one of the fetchall_* or
selectall_* methods anyway, or you will need to copy
the record before saving it.
