It seems an unofficial patch, isn't it?
couchdb-lounge is a full third party project on top of CouchDB, not a
patch.
The CouchDB description states that it is a distributed db. So
shouldn't it
integrate a distribution engine to spare databases on many servers?
There are different understandings of "distributed". CouchDB's idea is
that
distributing full data sets between nodes is an equally valid use-case
(and
IMHO a much more common one).
That said, Adam already said CouchDB will have partitioning and it's
a good thing :)

I am collecting information and doing some proofs-of-concept in
preparation for suggesting CouchDB as a replacement for a 20-year-
old
house-developed document system. One topic I will need to address
goes
like this:
(1) How big can one CouchDB database file get?
Unlimited, although performance will get ugly once the indexes
don't fit in
RAM.
(2) How could I store one CouchDB logical database across multiple
disks
or machines?
Multiple disks: RAID
Multiple machines: CouchDB-Lounge (not yet fully 0.10 compatible, but
they're working on it)
