The main point of the project is to become more comfortable tackling large amounts of code. Working through the PostgreSQL code has been very interesting, and thus far I've worked independently, but now I'm getting a little overwhelmed. What I'd like to do is add some code to the heap_delete function that checks the tuple being deleted for oids, compares those oids to the loids in the pg_largeobject relation, and deletes rows accordingly. I thought using TupleDescs would be helpful, but I guess my understanding of them is off. Nate Sommer
