There is no connection between TOAST tables and pg_largeobject, which
holds large objects.

Changing TOAST strategy from EXTENDED to MAIN will give you a larger
main table and a smaller TOAST table.

See
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/storage-toast.html

Try \lo_list at your psql prompt to see why your large object table
is big.
