Sounds wrong to me. The libpq client is the default reference
implementation of the protocol. If there were large efficiencies that
could be copied, they would be.
Anyway - you don't need to assume what's in the protocol. It's
documented here:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.0/static/protocol.html
I'd stick wireshark or some other network analyser on the two sessions -
see exactly what is different.
