There is this comment in /usr/include/ufs/ffs/fs.h:

/* Maximum file size the kernel allows.
 * Even though ffs can handle files up to 16TB, we do limit the max file
 * to 2^31 pages to prevent overflow of a 32-bit unsigned int.  The buffer
 * cache has its own checks but a little added paranoia never hurts.
 */
#define FS_KERNMAXFILESIZE(pgsiz, fs)   ((u_int64_t)0x80000000 * \
    MIN((pgsiz), (fs)->fs_bsize) - 1)


Now page sizes differ within OpenBSD, so then it depends between 8 TB (4096
bytes page size) and higher perhaps?
