Yes - with the standard ShowTransaction component I'm seeing this query 
executed for each "email record" transaction:

  SELECT main.*
FROM
  Attachments main   WHERE ((main.TransactionId = '112812')) ORDER BY main.id
   ASC

Using the cached attachment collection eliminates the queries and seems to 
get the same result.
