Description:
------------
The manual states the following:

"On the one hand, this saves a considerable amount of memory with SQL queries that produce large result sets. On the other hand, you can start working on the result set immediately after the first row has been retrieved:"

The problem is that both "this saves a considerable amount of memory" and "you can start working on the result set immediately" are both good things.  In  English grammar, the use of "on the one hand...on the other..." indicates  two opposite points.  For more information on this English grammatical construction, you can check out this link: http://books.google.com/books?id=ygyFbU8h4BUC&lpg=PA153&ots=i7iduHFK82&dq=%22one%20hand%22%20%22other%20hand%22&pg=PA153#v=onepage&q=&f=false

Reproduce code:
---------------
---
From manual page: function.mysql-unbuffered-query#Description
---


Expected result:
----------------
I suggest the paragraph should be changed to something like the  following:

"This saves a considerable amount of memory with SQL queries that produce large result sets, and you can start working on the result set immediately after the first row has been retrieved:"

This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the
online and downloadable versions of the documentation need some time
to get updated, we would like to ask you to be a bit patient.

Thank you for the report, and for helping us make our documentation better.
