I already checked with AI before putting the comment :-)

Have you done this? I can google or AI for the max size that postgres will allow, sure. I have googled in the past for whether this actually works well, and have gotten answers leaning towards most advice against it in real world scenarios.

So if you have experience with this and it did work well, I'm curious to hear about it! That's why i asked about if it worked well, not about the maximum size postgres allowed in various data types.

If you have no experience with it, but are just posting advice based on what AI tells you about max sizes of data allowed by pg that I can get from the same source too, then okay, fair enough, and certainly no need to give me any more of that!
