Hi NG,

  How do I find out the size of a column ?

  I am retrieving large objects from the pg_largeobject table and creating a
files, I would like to know the length of the data column so that I can
implement buffering instead of writing hundreds of small chunks to disk.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

 Brett
