DBI will move the data for you, dealing with all
of the serialization issues internally and at a
higher speed than anything you're likely to come
up with:

  my $dbh = DBI->connect( ... );

  my $sth = $dbh->prepare( $your_sql_here );

  $sth->execute( @valuz );

  my @data = $sth->fetchall_arrayref;

is nearly all you knead to get the data out of a
database (at least for MySQL).
