      create a file called dbref-test.js with the following content.

      db.card.save({"_id": 1, "number": 123455});
      db.person.save({"_id": 1, "name": "Joe", "card": DBRef("card", 1)});

      And type in the following command.

      mongo mydb dbref-test.js 
      mongoexport -d mydb -c person -o p.json
      mongoimport -d mydb -c person --upsert --file p.json 

      You should see the following exception on mongoimport command

      exception:BSON representation of supplied JSON is too large: code FailedToParse: FailedToParse: Expecting quoted string: offset:64

      FYI: p.json created by mongoexport contains this data.

      { "_id" : 1, "name" : "Joe", "card" : { "$ref" : "card", "$id" : 1 } }

    Description

      Since I upgraded my mongodb from 2.2.3 to 2.4, some of my mongo shell script stop working. So I had to roll back.

      mongoimport command throws "BSON representation of supplied JSON is too large" exception when the input json file contain record with DBRef in it. I've tried with both DBRef('name', 'id') or

      {'$ref': 'name', '$id': 'id'}

      .

      Please see below on how to reproduce the issue.
