Hello everyone,

I have a quick question of performance.  Which is
faster with the Perl DBI:

1. One SQL query that retrieves a large amount of data
and then lets Perl decide what to do with each row. 
i.e. this row is a "foo1" do this, this row is a
"foo2" do this.

2. Several SQL queries that segement the larger query
into several small queries.  i.e. Perl does this to
all "foo1" from query #1. Perl does this to all "foo2"
from query #2. Etc...

I know this is really not specific enough for a
concrete answer but I was just wondering which is
'generally' more efficient.

Just wonderin' Thanks.
