Hi, I've been browsing the newsgroup archives and came across the following: > > > > > Can you see a scenario where a programmer would forget to delete the > > > > > data from pg_largeobject and the database becoming very large filled > > > > > with orphaned large objects? Does this mean that to delete my large object I need to delete the row in my table, and also the row or rows in pg_largeobject. Currently I am only deleting the row in my table. I have just been looking at the pg_largeobject table, it seems to have more rows than I would expect in it. Is the solution to pass these two commands to jdbc? delete from my_table where lob_oid = 1234 delete from pg_largeobject where loid = 1234 Thanks in advance Heather. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: Have you searched our list archives? http://www.postgresql.org/search.mpl
