According to the postgresql docs, (at
http://looking-glass.usask.ca/postgresql/docs/postgres/largeobjects.htm)
Originally, Postgres 4.2 supported three standard implementations of large
objects: as files external to Postgres, as UNIX files managed by Postgres,
and as data stored within the Postgres database. It causes considerable
confusion among users. As a result, we only support large objects as data
stored within the Postgres database in PostgreSQL.
---------------
Now I'm confused. From what I'd gather from earlier today, Postgres used
external files. Are the docs that out of date?
