What kind of fits would you expect?

The only thing with replication I would expect is that there would be a little delay because a 20mb is going to take a little longer to transfer than a 1kb text field...

I don't have to create a bunch of symlinks to folders and use nfs/ samba for

I can easily attach additional information to a file, without actually
touching the file
I can use foreign keys to handle garbage collection of files
I can easily manage additional versions of files... For instance I could
cache different versions of a image.

All in all I think it would just be much easier to manage a large set of
files in a database, rather than a filesystem



Are you going to be (or planning to in the future) any sort of database replication? I haven't tested this particular case, but I'd expect the single threaded/serialized nature of MySQL replication have some fits with 20MB data fields.
