Yeah, and PostgreSQL is unique among the database products I've used
in defaulting to materializing the entire result set on the client
side before returning from the execute call.  Most databases fire off
the query on the server at execute and wait for client requests to
pull data before generating the result rows on the server side (maybe
with a small read-ahead for performance).  It would appear that
hibernate, at least as configured and used here, is not overcoming
this default PostgreSQL behavior.
 
Take a look at this page and see where it might be going wrong:
