Description of problem: All common JDBC drivers provide APIs for streaming of LOBs in & out of the DB. These APIs, however, are not exposed/used by persistence, so applications have to pull the entire LOB into memory when reading/writing. This is not at all good for scalability of applications using LOBs, such as CMS images / file attachments / Doc Manager. A mere 10 users downloading 35 MB files will use up at *best* 350 MB, potentially some multiple of this amount if the byte[] are copied in memory ever. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
