With respect to *other* databases, you have timeouts which will drop the
database side of a result set or connection so the resources are recovered.
Commercial databases will clean things up. (Although its always better to
clean up your own mess) If you close the database connection, you'll trigger
the clean up process.
You are over optimistic. It is depressingly common for applications to
fail if ResultSet's aren't closed aggressively. While Oracle is the
usual whipping boy for this behaviour, it is by no means unique.
