The teoretical limits are far beyond the level attainable by anyone who asks such a question (this is based on my personal experience ).
However might want to read the old limits, note that Firebird 2.0 (now very close to production quality) has rised them.
Theoretical max table size is 32 TB.

Thumbs up

Thank you so much.

Firebird is so powerful. It is far beyond the limitation of MS Access which its limitation is only 2GB for the whole DB.

Though Firebird is free to use, it's much better.

Note that a database can be made of many smaller files instead of a single huge one, this makes everything more manageable.
