[TYPO3] rvt_adodb vs dbal

[ries van Twisk]

Hey Xavier,

we use rvt_adodb only with PostgreSQL to access some of our other  
databases and
has only be tested by me on PostgreSQL...

The problem you describe is possible due to AdoDB being slow at that  
point and not rvt_adodb.
If there is a way to solve this on rvt_adodb I am more then happy to  
accept a patch...

rvt_adodb is by no means official, it's just that it saves us opening/ 
closing connections in our extensions
and we are for sure that we only open one connection to a remote DB  
and it can be used from many
extensions properly witout worring about the above...
