I am very new to Postgres and have always worked in the mssql world. I'm looking for suggestions on DB backups. I currently have a DB used to store Historical information that has images it's currently around 100gig. 

I'm looking to take a monthly backup as I archive a month of data at a time. I am looking for it to be compressed and have a machine that has multiple cpu's and ample memory.

Suggestions on things I can try ?  
I did a pg_dump using these parms
--format=t --blobs lobarch

it ran my device out of storage:

pg_dump: error: could not write to output file: No space left on device

I have 150gig free on my backup drive... can obviously add more

looking for the quickest and smallest backup file output...

Thanks again for help\suggestions 

Step 1: redesign your DB to NOT use large objects.  It's an old, slow and unmaintained data type.  The data type is what you should use.
You mean bytea I guess. As a side note, (not a fan of LOs), I had the impression that certain drivers such as the JDBC support streaming for LOs but not for bytea? It's been a while I haven't hit the docs tho.

Our database is stuffed with images in bytea fields.  The Java application uses JDBC and handles them just fine.
Likewise, but the "streaming" part is still not clear to me, unless one reads the newest JDBC source. Lots of problems due to image explosion, java app heap space exhaustion and the like.
