You may get a 'Packet too large' error from the server.
In this case you will have to increase the value of the *server* variable
max_allowed_packet above the default value of 1M to 32M. This can be done
by adding the following line to the [mysqld] section of your my.cnf file and
restarting the MySQL server daemon.
[mysqld]
max_allowed_packet = 32M
