Usually, you can just deal with it immediately and discard it. I think Oracle lets you snatch a whole array at once, but not MySQL. If you screw up your SQL, you don't want to try to snatch the whole thing at once anyway -- The potential for trashing your web/db-server by asking for, oh, 10,000 records at once is just too high.
