The first thing to check is whether you might be accidentally keeping a
reference to the result set alive somewhere.
If that's not the case, then try to find out if the result set is created by one
big allocation or lots of little ones (If the latter, other responses have
pointed out how it may cause your problem).
There's also a chance of a problem with the database API wrapper, so it may be
worth checking with an API specific list.
Cheers,
Nick.
