There's still potentially one big thing that can be done: reduce
round-trips.

For example, the PgJDBC driver sends multi-statements to the server by
writing a bunch of bind/parse/execute messsages, *then* waiting for a
response and processing each response as it receives it.

It can be worth looking at what's happening on the wire.
