You're going to have to provide a test case for this. With this vague report of yours, I don't even know what "it" is, or what constitutes this "break".

MySQL++ imposes no explicit size limitations. If something's breaking, my instinct is that it's a MySQL limitation, or you're running out of memory somewhere. If you have the memory and MySQL allows you to store it, MySQL++ should allow you to access it.
