Ahh, yes. In this case it is possibly only with holdable cursors by declaring
them and committing before reading any rows from it to force materialization
of entire result set to the temporary storage.
Although, this approach can be used to avoid std::bad_alloc in case of
millions tuples in the result set :-)

No, I mean that the tool was developed to help tune application
queries, in which the data transfer time can be just as important as
the query execution time. With cursors, you lose that information.

Of course, patches to make optional use of cursors would be interesting to us.
