Looking for some advice and guidance from real-world usage:
Large saddle bags (e.g. Revelation Viscacha / Carradice SQR)
vs
seatpost-mounted racks (e.g. Topeak MTX).

I've used various Carradice seat packs and they've all been great, they've done exactly what they've meant to without issue. Also, sometimes use a waterproof Ortlieb saddle pack which is smaller than the Carradice ones but again works without fault.
Only time I've ever used a seatpost mounted rack I destroyed it in one trip, it came back bent, with knackered threads and it also managed to rub some holes into a dry bag ... never bothered since.
