I agree with posts stating that you should read the docs before using a tool you don't know. But I also think that these two really important points should be mentioned in the Getting Started guide, in bold: - The 32bit 2GB limitation (seriously when I started with MongoDB I wasn't expecting this!) - The fire-and-forget policy

These are really not points to be discovered in chapter whatever of the docs.
