Why did you post this to the performance list?
You can use the command line interface psql and
use a large object:
/* import the file as a large object with a unique commentary */
\lo_import 'dontdo.bmp' 'Excel File'
/* read the large object as bytea and insert it */
INSERT INTO excel_file_upload (user_id, excel_file)
VALUES (1,
pg_catalog.loread(
pg_catalog.lo_open(
(SELECT DISTINCT l.loid
FROM pg_catalog.pg_largeobject l
JOIN pg_catalog.pg_description d
ON (l.loid = d.objoid)
WHERE d.description = 'Excel File'),
262144
),
1000000000
)
);
/* delete the large object */
SELECT pg_catalog.lo_unlink(
(SELECT DISTINCT l.loid
FROM pg_catalog.pg_largeobject l
JOIN pg_catalog.pg_description d
ON (l.loid = d.objoid)
WHERE d.description = 'Excel File')
);
It would be easier in Java or any other language ...
