Prepared api calls use a binary protocol, which is totally different from the "old" protocol. If you don't need binary protocol for prepared statements, why don't you use native SQL Implementation for prepared statements instead ?? It's always easy to claim that stuff other people created (and spent a lot of time on it) sucks. But it sucks definitely more, if people are not able to read the PHP and MySQL Documentation carefully.
