just a remark: I am using PostgreSQL to store BLOB-Data as there are "Images", "PDFs", "Microsoft Office Files". The system (application, network, database) is working quite okay up to around 10 Megabytes per file. And that for around 7 years now. The database itself comfortably works with up to 1Gig per object, just the database drivers / network stack / bandwith / users patiance for answers really gets... unreliable above 10 Meg per file.
