Statement plans are kept only per session, so a prepared statement
across multiple transactions would not have any benefits unless
the architecture would be changed to keep cached statement plans
in shared memory (like Oracle has it, which is always a good
source for bugs).
Are there any other benefits do you expect from prepared statements?
