That would be more forgivable. This is:

  SELECT * FROM payments where paymentID = 1
  SELECT * FROM payments where paymentID = 2
  SELECT * FROM payments where paymentID = 3
  ...
  SELECT * FROM payments where paymentID = 14986
Each of those in its own API request over the wire, then sum them on the client.
