Hey Jeffrey, thanks for pointing this out. Eventually we should have look at a configurable setting here, so we might not end up using the patch, but still thanks.
Would you mind creating a bug report on http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB so we don't forget? That'd be nice, thanks! Jan -- On Apr 26, 2008, at 05:05, Jeffrey Ollie wrote:
I'm just getting started with CouchDB and I noticed that mochikit restricts document sizes to one megabyte. Is there a reason to limit the size of documents other than to prevent DoS attacks? I modified my copy of CouchDB with the attached patch and increased the maximum document size to 50MB. I was able to successfully save a large document (although I haven't tried pulling it out yet). The reason that I want such large objects is to store images in the database, and have the images replicated for redundancy. Jeff <couchdb-maxbody.patch>
