If individual large objects might need to be referenced from multiple locations, it gives you an easy way to do that without needing to create a new table with id and document columns (and possibly a comment column). It gives you the ability to stream documents in rather than including them in a SQL statement, which can reduce stress on RAM. It gives you the ability to set the security for individual documents, although it sounds like that is not something you find useful. -- Kevin Grittner EDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
