AbstractJdbc2Statement.setFetchSize()

All,
I had hoped to use this method, which is implemented in PG 7.4, to limit 
the number of rows retrieved (for display purposes) out of some massive 
datasets we have. I know the JDBC spec says that this is just a hint, 
but calling the method on a Statement doesn't seem to have any effect on 
the SELECT. It still seesm to try to load the whole dataset.

Is there any way to avoid cursored FETCH approaches to this problem?
                   Thanks,
                   Rich Cullingford
