Some of the answer is going to depend on the type of machine you are running. I notice definite lags with my 5meg TW's on a netbook. Not so much on a desktop.
In the past we could depend on hardware to constantly improve in terms of speed. In the last half decade that has not been quite as true. Indexed databases could be immense, even on 486 machines. Non-indexed data managers (like TW) hit a wall quickly. I'm guessing that 30megs is the practical upper limit for most home computers. That's still a lot of text.
