Guys , i posted this already and this time my question is a bit different .

I have to store 20,000,000 images of 5k each either in DB ( on win2k) or linux o/s file system.

the images are to be displayed over mobile phones.so the time to retrieve the images should be minimum.

  for this to be achieved , i am confused , whether the images   should be stored in o/s file system or in the DB ?

  --selecting a file from linux o/s file system -------

           or
  --querying it from oracle DB ( on win2k) ---------------

  which of the above will be faster ?

all these will be done with java . this being condition , i would
  like to know ur suggestion guys.

  my DB is oracle 8.1.6 on Win2k.

TIA
