Large Objects (I guess that's what you mean with "oid" here) might be the better choice for you, particularly since you have out of memory problems. While bytea is always written in one piece, you can stream large objects by reading and writing them in smaller chunks. Moreober, large objects have a bigger size limit than the 1GB of bytea. The downside is that the API is slightly more complicated, and you'll have to take care that the large object gets deleted when you remove the last reference to it from your database.
