Hi Sjoerd,

Thank you for this is makes sense now.

However essentially to INSERT data into a BLOB you are going to have convert the data before inserting it into database, which could be expensive in compute time.

Normally that would be something like:
INSERT INTO t VALUES ('0102030405060708090a0b0c0d0e0f');
where the value being inserted is no more than a list of hexadecimal
digits with en even length (two digits per octet).
