Attachments don't affect general performance except during compaction,
where the bytes must be copied to a new file. Eventually we'll have a
binary object plugin, to allow binary objects to be written to
alternate storage.

Hi all,
I have an application where users will have to upload different media
with different sizes from picture to video and I currently hesitate
between allowing them to upload directly in couchdb as attachments or
just storing on fs or any other system. How uplooading all files in
attachments resulting in a big db file will impact on performance ? Is
couchdb storage designed for such thing ?
