large objects,was: Restoring 8.0 db to 8.1

> Not likely to change in the future, no.  Slony uses triggers to manage the

that leads me to a question I often wanted to ask:

is there any reason to create NEW PostgreSQL databases using Large
Objects, now that there is bytea and TOAST? (besides of legacy needs)

as much as I read, they take special care in dump/restore; force the
use of some special APIs on creating, do not work with Slony ....
