Hi all ! I'm working on a database that needs to handle insertion of about 100000 large objects (50..60GB) a day. It should be able to run 200 days, so it will become about 10TB eventually, mostly of 200..500KB large objects. How does access to large objects work ? I give the oid and get the large object... what is done internally ? How (if at all) are the oid's indexed ? Thanks a lot in advance ! Haukinger -- "Feel free" - 5 GB Mailbox, 50 FreeSMS/Monat ...
