Good point, and worth repeating.

If you store large BLOBs in your database, performance will be much better
if you keep them in a separate table something like this:

CREATE TABLE bigThings(id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, stuff BLOB);

Then store all of your metadata in separate tables and reference the big
BLOBs using the short integer ID.

Hello d,

I prefer them in the DB so, I can move them as a package. I have 30-40
GB  DB's filled with image files. Performance is decent. I do keep the
blobs in one table and meta-data in another.

[sqlite] store image file as blob

2013-10-30 Thread d b
Hi,

 My sqlite database module has to store images (max. 100 KB) on client
machine.

 1. store images on file system and have reference in database
 2. store image as blob in database.

 Which is the best way to store these images?

 Any suggestions are welcome.

Best Regards,
va.
