He may be thinking about the fact that Postgres used to store each large
object as a separate table, which did indeed get pretty inefficient if
you had large numbers of large objects (not so much Postgres itself, as
that most Unix filesystems don't handle huge directories efficiently).
This is fixed as of 7.1, however.
