I maintain HAPI FHIR which uses H2 database (via Hibernate) as its default option.

We've had a few reports now of code breaking after the upgrade to H2 2.x. I finally tracked the issue down to this line:

https://github.com/h2database/h2database/blob/master/h2/src/main/org/h2/value/ValueVarbinary.java#L33

We use Hibernate to store binary blobs which are often 2-3 MB in size. I'm wondering why H2 explicitly forbids supplying a LOB as a byte[] unless it is less than 1 MiB. Obviously there is a threshold beyond which it makes much more sense to use a streaming parameter instead of a byte array, but on a system with a reasonable amount of memory this 1mb limit seems artifically low. Would a pull request to increase this limit be accepted?
