While Berkeley DB can handle large values sizes (up to u_int32_t), there 
are performance implications, and I would highly recommend you research 
them and test them before storing large 10mb chunks of data in it :)

They are other issues with large data, such that you will most likely 
want to use a variable sized value, which means you are unable to use 
the Queue table type.
