Maximum document size

Hi Antonio,

There is a 2GB limit at the Lucene level, but you might run into issues
before that depending on your memory constraints. It is however quite
unusual to have such large documents because it doesn't help much finding
what actually matched your query. For instance if you are indexing books,
splitting them into pages will help not only finding the matching books but
also the matching page numbers for instance.

I am new to ES, and i made a search the past days to determine if there is
a limitation on the size of a single document (i know from mongo that a
single document can't exceed 16 MB). I didn't found any relevant topic
about single document size limitation, so my question is if any limitation
on this exist or not?
Thank you in advance.
