Re: why the 16meg space size limit?

Why would you store *large* amounts of data in *USRSPC.
To me they seem to be ill-equipped for that purpose, and I doubt they were
ever architectured for this. Database files or stream files have much more
functionality - take journalling, for example.

Don't be offended - I am really curious...

In the architecture, user spaces were the means to store large amount of
data.
Bolting teraspaces onto to the architecture just introduces extra
complexity
as
a teraspace is not a bona fide object.
