Good article. The only inaccuracy I saw was that he claims Postgres'
storage of large objects is "in the filesystem" and "inefficient".
From my reading of the docs this is not true--large objects are stored
within the database just as with any other data. The programming
interface to LOs may or may not be clunkier than that of other
databases, but the storage is no less efficient.
I thought about posting a comment on the article, but I didn't feel
like registering at Yet Another Website in order to do so.
