RE: MySQL Size

It really depends on your OS and compilation options, but it should go at least up to 2 GB on any common platform..

RE: MySQL Size

I'm not familiar with FreeBSD and it still depends on how MySQL was built, AFAIK.

Still, I can safely say that you have 2GB available for each table or index file (*.MYD / *.MYI)..

RE: MySQL Size

On my bsd box the Max_data_length for MyISAM tables is 4294967295 bytes, or roughly 4GB. Execute this command to check for yourself:
Code:
SHOW TABLE STATUS FROM db_name;
