Hi,

Since it is remarkably easy to implement, perhaps you would let on where
you would put it. For limit (n, m) would you just fetch rows up to m and
discard the first n-1 of them? If this is in the client, wouldn't it be
equally fast to let the user discard the first n-1 rows? Where does the
parsing to recognize the request happen?

Thanks
