RE: typo

I think "table rows themselves" makes sense. I came up with another alternative as below, as long as it does not change
themessage, the sentence is trying to convey.
 

"TOAST table, which is used for out-of-line storage of field values that are too large to keep [or, be kept] within the
originaltable."

Maybe that is not a bad alternative
    "table rows themselves"

Even if that sounds slightly less idiomatic than the original, I think it'd be less of a stumbling block for non-native
readers.
