"Extra lazy" Collection with Criteria

I've looked everywhere but can't figure this out.
How do I use the Criteria api to load an "extra lazy" collection?

I want

Code:

session.createCriteria(Item.class).list()

to return a lazy list.

Perhaps it's not possible to load "extra lazy" lists with the Criteria api? If so, could someone please confirm that so I can stop looking for an answer? :)

extra lazy collections has to do with the mapped collections.

nothing to do with the returned list from any type of query.

use a ScrollableResult or iterator or pagnation if you want a results "lazy"

Thanks.
I was just thinking perhaps there was a way to make list() behave just like an extra lazy collection. That way you would be able to use subList(..) and size() for pagination. :)

I'm on mysql now so I'm not sure ScrollableResult is a good idea. I'll just stick to setFirstResult/setMaxResults for now.
