GraphQL resolver N+1

A GraphQL query returns 100 posts and each post's author field triggers a separate DB lookup. What is this and the standard fix?
Options
  1. 1The N+1 problem; batch and cache with a DataLoader-style per-request loader
  2. 2An injection flaw in the resolver; sanitize inputs so it stops repeating one lookup
  3. 3A memory leak in the loader; restart the server so it stops holding references to parent rows
  4. 4A serialization bug; switch to protobuf so repeated per-parent lookups collapse
