We had a health check done by IBM when we were at TSM 5.3 and were told they don't recommend a DB size higher than 120Gb for performance and restore purposes.

Practically, one should be a good bit smaller. It really boils down to how long do you want a restore of the backed up DB to take? Figure about 150% of the backup time for a restore.
