I've tried doing as much reading on the mailing lists as I can on this.

The problem lies in that I'm trying to use PostgreSQL to store HTML 
documents which are larger than the default tuple size of 8120 bytes.   I 
originally thought that the data type TEXT wasn't limited in size.   Also, 
through some of the postings, I came to the understanding there was a 
limit, but that it was supposed to be removed.

I've gone through the source some and found where MaxTupleSize is defined, 
but I'm not sure what would be acceptable values to set it to.

Can anyone offer some help?

Thanks in advance,
Thomas
