In the code you sent before, it looked to me as if you were writing only
96K - 3 bytes off the front of each blob to the database in chunks of
32K -1 bytes. Presumably you meant to pass in the size of the blob, subtract
32K-1 from it on each write testing for > 32K-1 remaining before each write
and only writing what is left on the last write.

There is probably some useful performance testing to do on the size written
on each write, as well, and the performance results will probably vary
according to blocksize and factors affecting the effective size available
for writing in each block. This has sometimes been referred to as
"chunksize." If you want this routine to be adjustable, then you may want to
pass in chunksize, making sure to reduce it to no more than the buffer's
defined length.

I didn't proofread your code...

If you do make an adjustable routine and you do some throughput tests the
data might be of interest. The last time I tested for chunksize effects on
blob writing performance was two storage model revisions ago, before they
removed user control of a few things.
