BUILD AND STORE PREVIEW ('', 'centrim', 'research', 'projects', 'innovationwiki', 'intro', 'innovationwiki.flv')
[warn] [/metadata/entry[1]] Error when getting size of 'item[8]': Field /metadata/entry[1]/item[8]/attr[]/key is too large!

-- then the Python process (for the ZEO client) quits, unexpectedly.

= Environment =

* Plone 3.1.6
* ZEO cluster, two clients
* ARFilePreview 2.2.0-pre2
* Mac OS X Server 10.5.5, G4 PowerPC Xserve

= See also =

Steps to reproduce:: 1. Through the Plone, attempt to add a 16.5 MB .flv Flash Video file

= Not affected =

* Plone 3.1.6 non-root standalone

+ arfilepreview-2-2-0-pre2
+ arofficetransforms-0-9-2

-- client2 in foreground _does_ continue to run _after_ the following line:

> BUILD AND STORE PREVIEW ('', 'Plone', 'innovationwiki.flv')

-- so maybe it's not an issue with ARFilePreview.

I'll continue to vary my buildout and mix of products until the unexpected quit is reproduced.
