If your main concern is effiency, keep the images in the filesystem.

Do you understand *why* MySQL runs out of memory attempting to run
that query? You're likely asking it for billions of rows!
You might try
select data1,data2 from table1, table2 where table1.data1 != tbl.data2
If you *do* get any rows, there are duplicates. And you'll know
exactly which values are duplicated.
