Hey Alfred, This is a database configuration issue. I don't know the key off-hand, but you can increase the max packet size in MySQL.
That said, we do have a 1MB limit for diffs now (but that's not what you're hitting), as Review Board can get bogged down if too many people are processing large diffs at once. It's not configurable yet, but in general, very large diffs can and should generally be avoided. They're quite hard to review, and usually mean that there's some auto-generated code or something in them that could be split out for the sake of review purposes.
