libpq batched parameterized query execution

Hi,

I'm wondering if it's possible to get libpq to batch multiple PQsendQueryParams() calls together.

It seems like currently we have to issue a PQsendQueryParams() call then call PQgetResult() until it returns NULL before we can start the execution. What would be good would be either:

1. I can keep sending them while the server is still processing the current one. After sending them all, I can keep calling PQgetResult() to iterate through them.

2. I can tell libpq "send all these PQsendQueryParams() calls together in one batch" to avoid excessive network roundtrips.

Maybe there's another option I don't see. COPY isn't really a solution, as I'm trying to take generic user input and send it to PostgreSQL as quickly as possible without parsing it. PQexec() can have semi-colon separated queries, but I need real parameters for this case.

Thanks
