Hello,
I am planning to have a postgres database for large object storage. I believe that with version 9.0, the 'world readable' issue with pg_largeobject is resolved and we can now control at object level- which users can read/write what objects.
Streaming performance is an issue and hence will need to increase the PAGE SIZE (BLCKSZ ) to ensure access is sequential. Does anyone have recommendation on a
BLCKSZ I can start with.
There will be lot of reads,updates,inserts,deletes of the objects. Also any ideas on how big of an issue fragmentation can be and how can it be contained ?
About 70% of the objects will be less than 1MB, about 25% upto 10MB and rest 5% or so may be larger than 10MB.
Metadata management is also important so just a distributed filesystem (rather than database) is not viable. Any other suggestions are welcome.
Thank you! - AJ
