I think by default it's 1MB, so maybe. I'm not sure of why the default is what it is, and what might break through changing it. In the system I was developing, I was trying to store a serialised Perl hash along with other information in the database. In the end, I chose to write the serialised hash to disk in a way that corresponded to the MySQL row ID, which meant I was no longer trying to store anything potentially big in the database directly. Hope that helps!
