The overhead of psycopg per cursor row is a lot less. So it makes a 
difference if you fetch *a lot* of data.

Anyway, if you don't have a performance problem, you don't need to care ;-)
Yes there is a way to try it out, install it and compare :-P
As I said, there is a win32 version of psycopg if that's the only 
platform you have access to:

psycopg is available for win32 (though the development version might not be)

Not completely true. Since long time ago there is a website with
unofficial psycopg binaries:

With the round-trip time of 245ms, three seconds only allows for
approximately 12 packet exchanges (roughly 24 total packets).  I think
latency is your problem.

It has one now.

But (of course depending on your query), your issue is not dependant on
the particular PostgreSQL, I think.

You'll probably also have it with executing a plain vanilla script via
psql.

Uh, in that case, maybe you should consider changing platform? 8^)
 

my app has to be multiplatform, but i would gladly rip windows from the 
drives of every computer with my bare hands.

You might want to try psycopg, it's claimed to be optimized for speed.
