Hmmm, 2.1 millions of rows are too many. Possibly "Out of memory
while reading tuples" error occurs but the driver forgets to handle
it in some cases. Please try the drivers on testing for 8.4.0201 at
http://www.geocities.jp/inocchichichi/psqlodbc/index.html .
You may be able to improve the memory usage by checking the "Use
Declare/Fetch" option.
