Publisher review:DBD Illustra supports values known as large objects, which may be larger than a database page. Illustra supports values known as large objects, which may be larger than a database page, and are stored as separate files outside the database.
DBD::Illustra provides support for reading large objects through the non-DBI read_large_object method. Illustra will not allow large objects to be read while a query is active, and also doesn't provide enough information for the driver to determine which columns returned contain large objects.
This means that the user of DBD::Illustra must go through more work to read large objects. When a large object column is selected from, instead of returning the contents of the column, Illustra returns a ``large object handle,'' which may be used to retrieve the contents of the large object, once the query is finished
