And if your database like mine crashs then you have lost all...
Restoring a Database of 1,8 TByte takes some hours!!!

No one restore a database of 1,8 TByte in less then one hour.
I have my database and currently 1 FileServer with the binary files.

(I will switch to 3 FileServers of 2U insteed of one 6U)

Served from a filesystem too

The overhead form getting a pic from the database is bigger then
from a filesystem.  I had allready tried it.  I can resize on the
fly too.  Now, where is the problem, if a php script get the pic
from a filserver using http or ftp?

My system is
                                  pgsql.example.com
                                 /   (maybve a cluster)
client ---------> www.example.com
                                 \
                                  bin1.example.com
                                  bin2.example.com
