Well, TOAST should be fairly transparent to users I believe. TOAST
values should be compressed or stored separately from the rest of
the row's data to get around the 8-32k block size.
There's also the large object support which is something else entirely.

hi,
I an using postgresql-7.1beta4 and am trying to use the large text fields.
I have heard of TOAST. There is little documentation.
I found one section about creating a data type,
then creating two functions to convert the data types.
Is this how TOAST is implemented?
Am I on the right trac
