% Does it stop once it hits the 4GB limit or is it a performance hit?

Talking about Oracle 10g XE - yes, 4GB (or precisely 5GB for user, sys
and undo) is a hard limit and the database will fail to extend tables
beyond it. Currently released beta version of Oracle 11g XE has this
limit extended to 11GB so you may look forward to stable version :).

Or you can use PostgreSQL version which has major features working
already.
 
 
% Did I miss the new more accurate numbers?
