i don't think concurrency control is in effect here. on postgresql side all 
is very fast!

PostgreSQL could be slower because it has networking overhead.
or because it had bugs in cursor implementation.

i've re-implemented cursors, and performance is much smoother now. but this 
patches didn't go into main repository yet -- somehow you've ignored patches 
that Henrik have sent on 08.01.2008.

i think it doesn't have sence to apply them now, though -- Henrik already 
has updated patches that work better (that famous instances reinitialization 
stuff got fixed), so, i think, one day he'll post them to the mailing list, 
and you can apply them :)
