Description

Native protocol 1.0 sends type information on execute. This is a minor inefficiency for large resultsets; unfortunately, single-row resultsets are common.

This does represent a performance regression from Thrift; Thrift does not send type information at all. (Bad for driver complexity, but good for performance.)
