Your biggest issue with "big" anything is memory usage, because the source 
table and any transformations you do with it are stored in RAM. As your data 
gets larger and larger, you run the risk of slowing down considerably or 
even running out of it. Not everyone has a gigabyte or more to play with.

The advantage of using a "real" database engine, like SQLite integrated with 
Rev 2.8.1, is that you'll be able to manipulate large tables with 
high-performance SQL commands, keeping your memory footprint down to just 
what is needed for on-screen display.
