I should have set this up years ago. But it's no tale of woe.

Bigger Map
I heard that minetest map can not hold more than 4GB. Is it possible to fix that?

At this time, there is no official way to fix that. There is a branch on Github focused on fixing that though, so all we can do is wait (or join in, for those that have C++ skills).
Level-DB is the branch I believe you are looking for.

Why don't they put that in official minetest? is it too slow or buggy?

It works fine for everyone, the problem is upgrading all the SQL users to the new format, since the maps are not compatible.

From what I've read, the LevelDB update comes with a way to translate a map between any two supported databases though, including the current SQLite. And I hear that works well, too.
Yeah, but you try making an app like this on losedows.
