We used lo a lot in a project for large uploads (>4GB files). Really
useful in a cloud environment.

I was interested in speed camparison myself and made a similar test with
network connection and without pg specific code.

File access is really fast and lo access is much slower than bytea (as
expected). But content size limitation and memory consumption for bytea
is problematic.
