> The current "String" type can't handle the string longer than 64K. The first 
> reason is that we are using java DataOutputStream to serialize it. It stores 
> the length using two bytes. However, it should serve the basic requirement 
> for "string" type.
> We need a special TEXT-like datatype to deal with long strings. And probably 
> add some search-related functionalities.
