Lol. The most PG blob storage I've used in prod was a couple hundred GB. It was a hack and the performance wasn't ideal, but the alternatives were more complicated. Simple is good.

Yeah, it's a great place to start. I took the time to implement streaming reads/write via npgsql's client support for it (it can stream records, and of course the Lob storage is broken into page sized rows) and performance is pretty darn good.
