Are you getting any out of memory errors at all?
The problem with the current implementation is that it reads the entire
result into memory, so 120000 rows may be filling up your VM's memory
(defaults to about 16Mb).
Does it occur if you add the -mx argument to java, ie:
java -mx 64m uk.org.retep.sql.RetepSQL
I'm in the design stage of implementing a version of ResultSet that will
use cursors, to limit how much is loaded in memory at a time.

This was fixed a few weeks ago and should be in the current CVS already.
