[Typo3-dev] thougts of TYPO3 imagefunction and short MD5 Hash

[Daniel Pötzinger]

Thanks - The arguments convinced me :-)

An article I readed for a while came to the result that it is more 
"modern" to use blob fields, and I thought searching for the image in 
the database will be much faster than in the filesystem (because db use 
things as B-trees and filesystems normaly only some kind of tables..)
-
But calling a php-file (which is also in Filesystem, must be interpreted 
and opens a db-connection) seems to take the webserver more time than 
only read the image from filesystem.
