Re: [SQL] PERSISTANT PREPARE (another point of view)

Er, ENOCOFFEE. Sorry.

The benefit is obvious with use of global prepared statements at the
wire protocol level rather than via SQL EXECUTE . It's a lot more
efficient than EXECUTE or SELECT function(params).

It's pretty clear that there are some tricky aspects though, what with
schema search paths, role priveleges, etc.
