Hi,
PostgreSQL passes bytea arguments to PL/Perl functions as hexadecimal strings, which is not only inconvenient, but also memory and time consuming.
So I decided to propose a simple transform extension to pass bytea as native Perl octet strings.
Please find the patch attached.
 
Regards,
Ivan Panchenko
