Ok, thanks for the limits info, but I have that in the manual. Thanks.
But what I really want to know is this:
1) All large objects of all tables inside one DATABASE is kept on only one table. True or false?
Thanks =o)

having 5000 tables only to gain access via city name is a major design flaw.
you might consider putting all into one table working with a distributed index over yer table (city, loc_texdt, blobfield); creating a partitioned index over city.
best regards
Now this interests me a lot.
Please clarify this:
I have 5000 tables, one for each city:
City1_Photos, City2_Photos, ... City5000_Photos.
Each of these tables are: CREATE TABLE CityN_Photos (location text, lo_id largeobectypeiforgot)
So, what's the limit for these large objects? I heard I could only have 4 billion records for the whole database (not for each table). Is this true? If this isn't true, then would postgres manage to create all the large objects I ask him to?
Also, this would be a performance penalty, wouldn't it?
Much thanks for the knowledge shared,
Rodrigo
