fetchrow_arrayref vs fetchall_arrayref: memory management?

Hello -

fetchrow_arrayref has a big warning that you need to copy the data
in the array before using it, because the next call to fetchrow_arrayref
will reuse the array.

Does fetchall_arrayref have similiar limitations, and if so do they
just apply to the array of arrarys, or the arrays in the array of
arrays as well?

Thanks!

-Erik
