It very much depends on the exact queries used:
1) INSERT INTO my_table (a, b) VALUES (1, 2);
2) INSERT INTO my_table (a, b) VALUES (1, 2) RETURNING a, b;
I would expect a lot more data to be returned with 2) than
with 1).
(That difference in testing setup does not explain the
differences between drivers, though, if one assumes you've
been using the very same queries with each.)
The other thing is that one driver may be using server-side
cursors while another driver will use client-side cursors.
The latter will transfer a lot more data.
I think you'd have to be more specific about the exact
testing methodology to get useful advice.
