I know that the the indexer hits a 2gig file limit (per file), which is a limit because of how ferret is compiled (I believe).
What we've done to offset this was to, when indexing, we optimize the index every so often, so that we never hit this limit. (because the optimized file size is quite smaller than unoptimized).
