The answer to that is certainly 'yes'.  It was one of the first things
that I complained about when moving from Oracle to PG.  With OCI, you
can bulk load results directly into application-allocated memory areas.

Haven't been following the dblink discussion, so not going to comment
about that piece.

        Thanks,
