At this point in time, we are not aware of any limits except for the
hardware you can throw at it...at least nobody that I've heard of has
reached it...

We did have a problem pre-v6.5 with >2gig tables, where the code in place
to compensate for the operating system limitations was broken, but that
has since been fixed...

I think it's dependent on the operating system, isn't it?
