I'd say that anything up to a megabyte or so can easily live in bytea.
Beyond that it depends on the access pattern.
That said, for certain situations I think some sql-callable functions
would be very handy:
lo_get(oid) returns bytea
lo_set(oid, bytea) returns void
lo_ins(bytea) returns oid
lo_del(oid) returns void
Those (and maybe some more) would allow access of traditional large
objects through client interfaces that don't support the regular large
object calls.
