TOAST
Greetings All,
I've seem some references to TOAST in 7.1. Can anyone tell me what it is
and/or where I can read all about it and how it will solve all my problems
using BLOBs with PostgreSQL?
Thanks!
David
Hi

The TOAST project transparently allows you to store text (I don't know about
BLOB's) with size >8KB. AFAIK there is no length limit with TOAST.
HTH,

Thanks, Paul. I appreciate the response and the pointer to the web page. I
sure wish the search engine on postgresql.org worked better so that I may
have found that page myself!
