I'm now moving my first steps in trying to memorize my many digital photos (for the time being some 700 pictures but rapifdly growing, average size among 800-900kb) in a "centralised system" easy to deal with. I'm now successfully (but still in an experimental level) using a postgresql 8.0.2 db with its wonderful lo_creat, lo_export, etc functions. Unfortunately I've read in the internet many criticism on the use of mysql or pgsql db to memorize images, that this is not an efficient way to do the job (no alternatives seem to be proposed anyway!) because the db easily becomes cumbersome (isn't that the "core business" of a great db such as mysql or pgsql?). Could someone out there tell an almost definite word on this subject with some suggestions (other applications?) based on real experience? Ciao Vittorio
