Riak doesn't itself mandate a maximum object size... but since a riak_object in transit must be materialized into an in-memory data structure and copied across processes, large objects can cause very poor performance or failure. The exact practical maximum can vary a bit. There is some (prototyped but not yet fully integrated) work that, when released, will allow you to store large objects easily by transparently chunking them into a hash tree of smaller objects. More details on this when it lands. I hope that this information is helpful.
