Either that, or explicitly DECLARE a CURSOR and use FETCH from that cursor in batches. You can do this in Perl even though the automatic cursor support is not yet there. You are restricted to staying in a transaction while the cursor is open, so if you want to work outside of transactions LIMIT/OFFSET is your only way. -Doug
