slow record retrieval.

we are retrieving results from zebra with the php yaz client
extention. we are
retrieving them as xml, and while the zebra search only
takes a few
microseconds, the fetching of the result records is quite
costly. 
Here is the retrieval code:

      $hits = yaz_hits($this->resource);
      $root->setAttribute("hits", $hits);

      if($hits > 0)
      {

         $results =
$this->dom->createElement("results");

         for ($i = 1; $i <= $hits; $i++)                 

         {
            $yasResultDoc = yaz_record($this->resource,
$i, "xml");
            $record = new xDocument;
            $record->loadXML($yasResultDoc);

I replicated the code in C, to some degree, and it seems the
retrieval is still somewhat slow. it takes about a second to
fetch 1000
records. I was hoping that it was the php Yaz
implimentation, and I could
write another php extention for it, but it seems that it's
something to do
with the syncronous mode or something. Not sure. I'll show
you the code, if
you can spot anything give me a shout.
(it's just test code)

#include <stdio.h>
#include <yaz/zoom.h>

int main()
{

  //make a new connection to our wonderfull zebra server
  ZOOM_connection yazLink = ZOOM_connection_create(0);

  //select the database we wanna use
  ZOOM_connection_option_set(yazLink,
"implementationName", "SCUZZY");
  //ZOOM_connection_option_set(yazLink, "async",
"1");
  ZOOM_connection_option_set(yazLink,
"databaseName", "newIndex");

  //tell the connection to actually connect
  ZOOM_connection_connect(yazLink, "10.10.48.110",
9999);

  //make a query "object" I think
  ZOOM_query query = ZOOM_query_create();
  int someVal = ZOOM_query_prefix(query, "attrset
Bib-1 attr 2=5 attr 1=5
2005");

  //get our results
  ZOOM_resultset results = ZOOM_connection_search(yazLink,
query);

  int hits = ZOOM_resultset_size(results);
  int i;
  ZOOM_record rec;
  char *data;
  int length;
  for(i = 0; i < hits; i ++)
  {
     rec = ZOOM_resultset_record(results, i);
     data = ZOOM_record_get(rec, "xml",
&length);
     printf("DATA: %sn", data);
  }

  printf("nnHITS: %dn", hits);

  const char *error;
  const char *extraError;
  if(ZOOM_connection_error(yazLink, &error,
&extraError))
  {
     printf("ERROR: nt%snt%sn", error,
extraError);
  }

  //drop the link
  ZOOM_connection_destroy(yazLink);

}

Many thanks
Daine.
