Pg does The Right Thing™ with large BYTEA blobs.  So that won't be a
concern for those using pg.  At least with 8.1 and up; I can't remember
whether 7.4 already had to automatic large object support.

(Any large object is automatically stored out of the table, and a
pointer to it stored in the table.  There may be a config option to
specify what constitutes a large object.)

I can't speak for my or lite.
