Re: [appengine-java] Blobstore vs Datastore Blob

No, there shouldn't be a difference. Blobs aren't indexed, and neither are
Blobstores. Blobs obviously have the size limit issue and are a bit more
flexible than Blobstores in terms of how you access and manipulate them, but
otherwise, they're using the same mechanisms at a very low level to persist
data.

 Is there any difference apart from API, billing restriction and max
 size between using Blobstore and Blob in Datastore? For example is it
 more efficient to store Blobs in Blobstore due to non-existing indexes
 for properties which would otherwise be present in Blob in Blobstore?
 Thanks, Peter
