People should not be inserting 4 meg monolithic files.  They should use FEC 
SplitFiles.

1. The Node class should expose the maximum file size explictly somewhere if 
it doesn't already.
2.We should add a MaxFileSize field to the NodeHello FCP message.  And send 
an appropriate error message on ClientPut  for files which are too big.
3. We should document the minimum acceptable store size.

The FEC stuff won't generate chunks bigger than 1Mb.

fproxy inserting FEC encodes files > 1Mb.
