Ditto ... Ed is right. We tried a configuation where we were storing MP3
audio files for a group of about 30 radio stations in the database, and the
server performance went to h@!! in a hand-basket.
We re-wrote the PHP front-end so the databases stores paths to binary files,
and the first thing we heard from users was the system was so much faster,
and nobody was getting 'time-outs' on the Internet.
