I have about 40 boxes in subtrees varying from near nothing to 600Mb
for the largest, but the total is between 2Gigs and 2.5Gigs. I don't
think that sets any records, although I assume that it's probably
above average. If Beagle can't index that with decent performance on
my hardware, then I have to wonder what it's doing out of Beta.
