Hi Dag,

I certainly hope I haven't optimized for fetching LOBs backwards!

Looking at ClobAccessTest, I see that several tests that are fetching 
only one Clob are fetching the same Clob. When I get some free cycles, 
I'll add a mechanism to avoid doing this. My theory is that some caching 
effects are in play. I'll post my findings when I have had look at the 
issue.
