If it is MySQL < 4.1, then you are using emulated prepared statements,
which may be causing the slowdown. It wouldn't surprise me if PEAR was
doing some funny regex's to parse the queries, escape the values, etc.
If you're using a database abstraction library, maybe try switching the
abstraction library (See PDO and Adodb, among others), it might speed
things up.
It should also be noted that using prepare/execute requires 2 trips to
the server
(http://dev.mysql.com/tech-resources/articles/4.1/prepared-statements.html),
since it has to send it to be parsed, then send it to be executed.
This would account for the exact factor of 2.
