Question

I have about 500K rows I need to return from my database (please don\'t ask why).

I will then need to save these results as XML (more URGH) and the ftp this file to some

Answer 1

using Dapper's Query method, which throws the entire result set into memory

It is a good job, then, that one of the optional parameters is a bool that lets you choose whether to buffer or not ;p

Just add , buffer: false to your existing call to Query.
