      Using the MongoDB 2.4.8 shell and OP_UPDATE, I can create a nearly-16MB document by upserting:

      > var sixteen = '';
> while (sixteen.length < (16 * 1024 * 1024 - 30)) { var x = (sixteen += 'a'); }
> sixteen.length
16777186
> db.collection.update({key: 1}, {$set: {x: sixteen}}, true)
>

      But in nightly shell build bffe6421 with the 'update' command, this fails:

      > sixteen.length
16777186
> db.collection.update({key: 1}, {$set: {x: sixteen}}, true)
