Large Objects (I guess that's what you mean with "oid" here)
might be the better choice for you, particularly since you
have out of memory problems.
While bytea is always written in one piece, you can stream
large objects by reading and writing them in smaller chunks.
Moreober, large objects have a bigger size limit than
the 1GB of bytea.
The downside is that the API is slightly more complicated,
and you'll have to take care that the large object gets
deleted when you remove the last reference to it from your
database.
