 I know this is probably a "loaded" question, but  do  have  any  idea  what
 might be the cause of this limitation ? Are there any FAQ's, docs or source
 code references we could follow up to see about solving this problem ?

 We  are  looking  to  create  an  index  for  70  Million records. My quick
 calculations show we will have a single table larger than 15GB.
