How about using sqlite? Does it have any limits? From my experience, sqlite is easy to use in grass vectors and, with little effort, you can connect it to oobase. Or just use sqlitebrowser or the command line to edit the databases.

With this many records I would seriously consider moving to a professional database, such as PostgreSQL/Postgis or Oracle Spatial. Both should run on a Mac. Postgis is of course easier to install and maintain than Oracle. It is also cheaper.
