Well, this was just hashed out last week, again.
Its a personal thing. I am against it, having seen the slowdown and
database bloat caused when this is done. I prefer a pointer to the
image to be stored in the table and use that. I have found that
after about 12Gb of binary data gets into the table, it really
starts to affect perfomance (in mysql).
Using a pointer just makes more sense to me.
The arguments for storing the image:
- automatically backed up with the db (you do back up, right?)
- stored with the relevant backing data
Against:
- more complex to show image
- db bloat (size of db balloons, may affect cost of storage)
- performance slowdowns as image data grows
