Redundant database query?

[Patrick Gibson]

I've got cyrus-imapd 2.2.8 setup to authenticate via a MySQL database. 
I've enabled logging on the database while I'm setting things up, and 
I've noticed that when I login, Cyrus runs the same query twice:

   47 Connect     [EMAIL PROTECTED] on RETRIX_TRANSITION
   47 Query       START TRANSACTION
   47 Query       select PASSWORD from USER_ACCOUNTS where 
USERNAME='patrick'
   47 Query       select PASSWORD from USER_ACCOUNTS where 
USERNAME='patrick'
   47 Query       COMMIT

Any idea as to why this would be happening?
I've looked through the sql.c module in the sasl source, but it doesn't 
look like the problems originates there (though I could be wrong). Has 
anyone else experienced this?

This system will eventually have a lot of users, and I want to optimize 
things as much as possible.

Thanks,
Patrick
