I don't think it does make such a claim. The claim it makes is that DSpace
can still provide an acceptable level of ingest performance when loaded with
1 million items.
The original email asked "Is there any known problem with the maximum size
of dspace database using postgres or in the import tool?" so the first part
of that, subject as you said to having a 'busy DSpace', is hopefully to some
extent answered by that paper.
Cheers,
Stuart
