I'm sure there will be 20 gig Freenet nodes. However, I think that a
hashtable in memory and files on the filesystem will scale to 20 gigs
easily. Unless they are all small files. It's when you start running out
of inodes that you seriously need to consider moving to a database.

As far as people uploading files bigger than 2GB, I don't think that
should be allowed anyway. Just reject (or pass on without caching) any
files too big for your OS to handle. That will encourage file splitting,
too.
