Обсуждение: images in one or more tables?

Hi list,

[Don't feed the troll: images *will stay* in table(s)]

I've need to store many images (BYTEA): items pictures, items datasheets PDFs
and documents PDFs (suppliers & clients.)

The logical way would be to stuff only one table with these images, however
wouldn't it be faster (in regard to long term accumulation) to have several
images tables (picture, datasheet, supdoc & clidoc) instead?

It would definitely make maintenance easier to split them up.

Big tables are a pain.
