As Richard pointed out, this is done if the odbcdriver cannot determine the execat types of the returned columns. This
shouldbe mainly a problem for queries that call a stored procedure as in most circumstances the drivers is capable of
gettingthe types by other means (see the file parse.c in the source distribution).
You could try to turn on the "Use Declare/Fetch": that does not prohibit the query being run twice, but it will leave
thedata on the server untill requested.
