The 4.0.x versions of Hobbit have a max. length for each bb-hosts entry
of 32 KB. This limitation was removed in Hobbit 4.1. So there is no 
limit, except that you must have enough RAM to load it into memory.

The text is copied directly into the HTML generated for the "info"
page, so you can add any tags you like as long as they are valid inside
an HTML <td>...</td> enclosure.
