Generally snmp tables are always wrapped around external data and
merely report it through the MIB interface.  The size of the external
data won't matter and you should be able to support an arbitrarily
large table.  However, it will affect your implementation.  You may
not want to store really large tables in a temporary cache if you're
short on memory.  Though if you're short on CPU you may if you have
the memory to burn.  It's a trade off that would take a lot more than
this paragraph to explain ;-)
