When comparing in the grid the only major advantage FB has is probably BLOB support. PG only suppports 1 gb while FB supports 32gb. Bytea is pretty slow as well when compared to the FB BLOB support.

Actually, Postgres's large object facility allows storage of binary data up to 2GB in size. http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/ interactive/largeobjects.html

      choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not
      match
