Mongod enforces a 16mb document size limit. However, the size is checked before mongod inserts an _id into documents lacking an _id. If the document size after insertion of a mongod generated _id exceeds 16mb, the resulting improperly sized document will still be inserted.
The existence of a document exceeding the maximum document size can cause subsequent problems. For example, a size changing modifier update of the document may fail because the size of the resulting document exceeds the maximum document size. There may be other errors that can result because of the improperly sized document, for example during replication.
Test
#include <iostream> #include <cstdlib> #include "mongo/client/dbclient.h" using namespace std; using namespace mongo; int main( int argc, const char **argv ) { const char* port = "27017"; mongo::DBClientConnection conn; string errmsg; if ( ! conn.connect( string( "127.0.0.1:" ) + port , errmsg ) ) { cout << "couldn't connect : " << errmsg << endl; return EXIT_FAILURE; } conn.dropCollection( "test.test" ); string large( 16 * 1024 * 1024 - 20, 'z' ); // Attempt to insert a document with a client generated OID (fails). conn.insert( "test.test", BSON( "_id" << OID::gen() << "a" << 1 << "z" << large ) ); log() << "insert, client oid err: " << conn.getLastError() << endl; // Insert a document with a server generated OID (succeeds). conn.insert( "test.test", BSON( "a" << 1 << "z" << large ) ); log() << "insert, server oid err: " << conn.getLastError() << endl; log() << "insert, server oid doc size: " << conn.findOne( "test.test", BSONObj() ).objsize() << endl; // Attempt to update the recently inserted document. conn.ensureIndex( "test.test", BSON( "a" << 1 ) ); conn.update( "test.test", BSONObj(), BSON( "$set" << BSON( "a" << 2 ) ) ); log() << "update err: " << conn.getLastError() << endl; }
