Hello!
I'm a beginner of the wonderful world of MySQL :-)
I'm planning to deploy MySQL for a project of my company but I've some
concern about real size limit of BLOBs.
situation: MySQL 3.23.33 on FreeBSD 4.2-stable, clients are near always
Win machines with MyODBC and proprietary software.
I read on Paul DuBois' excellent book that longblob are 2^32-1 wide,
but actually the communication _protocol_ between clients and server
limits to 24Mb the dimension of a single record.
It is still true ? or, maybe, have been "fixed" ?
What workarounds could I use ?
My database will be very few accessed (about 20 persons max.), I've no
need of speed but often I should archive data of more than 24Mb.
Besides bypassing this problem (not using MySQL to save such BLOBs)
there are other solutions ?
Thanks a lot!!
