`conn`	Database connection object
`allIndices`	A vector of indices to pass to the genQuery function in batches.
`genQuery`	A function which takes a vector of indices and constructs an SQL SELECT statement returning records for the given indicies.

## The function is currently defined as
function (conn, allIndices, genQuery, batchSize = 1e+05) 
{
    batchByIndex(allIndices, function(indexBatch) {
        df = dbGetQuery(conn, genQuery(indexBatch))
        result = rbind(result, df)
    }, batchSize)
    result
  }
