Would it make sense to use iFS to store and serve images that are uploaded (via browser) and then displayed on a website?

When storing the imgages directly on the dick we run into scalability issues as well as having to worry about propagating copies of each image to each web
server.

Does it make more sense to store the images in iFS or simply in a BLOB (or whatever) in a normal Oracle table?

Is anyone using iFS for this?
