I was told by a Tivoli Engineer at one time that you shouldn't let them grow much over 50 gb. Primarily, because of the reason you state here about having the capability to restore. In a disaster, you need to take into consideration how much time it is going to take you to restore that database

I have 2 rules for DB size. 1. Restore time - if it will take longer than your recovery window on your TSM server to restore the database, your DB is too big. A good estimate of restore time is 50% longer than the backup - 2 hours to backup the database, 3 hours to restore. If your maximum
