I've had a few reports from TouchDB users of problems replicating large 
documents up to hosted services (IrisCouch or Cloudant). The symptom is that 
TouchDB uploads ~200k of JSON via _bulk_docs and then either gets a 503 error 
or just a dropped connection. I'm wondering whether this is a symptom of 
hitting a server-side limit on the maximum size of a document body.

Looking through the CouchDB config I see a couchdb.max_document_size setting, 
but it defaults to 4GB, which should be more than sufficient :) It's also set 
to 4GB on my basic IrisCouch account. Is there some other limit on document 
size, or known bugs that would cause a server error with very large JSON 
documents?
