Hi, https://imgur.com/a/ovsJPRv -- I've uploaded the profiling info (as an image, sorry). It seems this is a JDBC-level problem. I understand that the absolute timing is not meaningful at all because you don't know how large the resultset is, but I can tell that this is only a few thousands rows + few thousand largeobjects, each largeobject is around 1 kByte. (Yes I know this is not a proper use of LOBs -- it's a legacy db structure that's hard to change.)
