Is there a way to break the PGresult array to chuncks  Like Oracle? 
I mean, without changing the text of given queries, can we  somehow
limit the memory consumption of a client that is using LIBPQ?

 The API is ...

 extern PGresult *PQexec(PGconn *conn, const char *query);

 Is there any "SLiding Window" layer that breaks the PGresult into
chuncks?

 Big queries take a lot more memory on the client side compared to other
DB  clients.

 Thanks

 Danny
