Unfortunately, in v4.5 there is no way to get everything in a single request. We built our API to be very granular so that it provides the most flexibility to the application developer. This does provide a problem with very large configurations. For this, starting in v4.6, we began introducing "bulk" methods that allowed you to request multiple objects within a single method call. This still doesn't solve the "all in one call" problem but it does help out with many of the same type of object.
The methods I've provided are what you'll need to use on 4.5. If you can upgrade to 4.6 then there may be ways to opmtimize pieces of your code.
If upgrading isn't an option, and you find your application is much too slow, you can always go the CORBA route. The performance will be much greater but you will lose upgradability in v9.0 because we stopped supporting CORBA in that release. But, I don't know of a single customer who has gone that route (thus the decision to remove it from the product).
