setFetchSize() not working

I'm using the 7.3.3 backend, and the JDBC 8.0dev jdbc driver 
(pgdev.306.jdbc3.jar).

I'm calling PreparedStatement.setFetchSize(32), on a table fetching 32KB 
BYTEA records, and I'm blowing out memory on the executeQuery() call
of the prepared statement.

PreparedStatement.getFetchDirection reports 1000, which is
ResultSet.FETCH_FORWARD.

Any clues?


Here's the trace catching the driver red-handed with all the memory:
