Hi Santiago,
Which version of QGIS you are using? I have QGIS 1.8 and works fine for displaying rasters (at 100mb) more than that sometimes I have troubles. See the metadata of the files after import to QGIS to check if everything is OK and try to change the appearance of the files in the properties (color ramp).
QGIS 1.7 had some problems with the Postgis 2.0
Best Regards,
Jose Santos

> The QGIS PostGIS raster plugin use GDAL to read rasters stored in PostGIS. I guess (but this is still not clear to me as I use OpenJump, not QGIS, to display vectorizations of PostGIS rasters), the last development version of the GDAL driver supports overviews. So:
