[Q] get rid of query "SELECT version(), timezone() FORMAT TSV"

Question

Hi.
Is there any way to prevent issuing the query "SELECT version(), timezone() FORMAT TSV" before any my certain query is sent to ClickHouse ?

This is a service query performed once on opening a new connection. If you create a new connection class for every request, then it would accompany every query. You should use more long-lived connections if that is an issue
