The ability to handle larger files is going to depend on the physical abilities of your machine. I have a pretty good set up, but hit the wall between around 20 megs. If you load your TW on a tablet or phone, the limit is going to be lower. It takes about 30 seconds or more to load a 10 meg file on my phone ... and sometimes it won't load at all. The thing to do would be to test your system. You can load up your TW pretty quickly by dragging and dropping images.
With node.js, you can't refer to external images or files on your local device. To access them, you would need a separate file server. To me that's a big reason not to use node.js. Good luck!
