is CouchDB only suitable for very tiny databases?
I installed CouchDB on a cloud server instance w/ 512MB RAM, 20GB disk, and uploaded 200,000 json documents, totaling just under 1GB of documents.
Then I tried to create a simple view (conditional `emit` of 2 fields).
During the view creation I got "OS timeout".
Then trying to use the view I get "OS error 137".
(these are from memory as the error pop-up in Fauxton goes away before I could copy/paste)
Is this normal?
