But that is surely based on some component installed on the server, isn't it?
Correct. I use a pyro-remote server. On request this remote server copies the relevant rows into a temporary table, uses a copy_to Call to push them into a StringIO-Objekt (that's Pythons version of "In Memory File"), serializes that StringIO-Objekt, does a bz2-compression and transfers the whole block via VPN.
I read on in this thread, and I scheduled to check on psycopg2 and what it is doing with cursors.
