TIB_Cursor is faster because it is much more simple than TIBOQuery. To
operate a fully fleshed out TIBOQuery there are actually multiple internal
TIB_Cursor (TIB_Dataset) component instances to make everything work.
Granted if you are only selecting data they aren't going to be utilized.
The nicest difference is you will use a lot less memory because the
TIB_Cursor doesn't buffer the records fetched.
