This is why I asked. I'm wondering what was the overhead exactly? And what is the plan to avoid the overhead? Is it to squeeze second implementation of java.sql.PreparedStatement interface into an already  existing class?

This is easy to explan and can also be  easily found  with bzr, or Launchpad. The file was added in revision 424 http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~maria-captains/mariadb-java-client/trunk/revision/424 .. The comment says

"CONJ21- allow ResultSetMetaData to be retrieved  from preparedStatement, before statement is executed.

Fix is using server-side prepared statement functionality - prepare command will return result set metadata among other information. Introduce MySQLServerSidePreparedStatement class, which in the future will be able to provide  full-featured PreparedStatement functionality, using server side prepared statements internally."


This is the fix for the bug https://mariadb.atlassian.net/browse/CONJ-21 , to allow users to retrieve ResultSetMetadata  priorto /without the  execution of statement. This is only possible with server-side "prepare", no other way around it
The class was meant to be expanded in the future, as the comment said.

Right, this makes sense.
