I am curious as to how large VLDBs are. . . we are considering moving data
from non-db storage to a relational database; data in the neighborhood of
300 million records of ~300 bytes each.  Is this large in comparison to
other dbs out there?  Can someone with "large" systems give me an idea 
of their size?  Also, we are concerned about backup issues.  Any shared
experiences would be appreciated.


Thanks.     pat payne
