Matt Jordan updated ASTERISK-17752:
-----------------------------------

    Description: 
I've been testing astDB limits in combination with asterisk.

a simple dialplan :
{noformat}
exten = _X.,n(waiting),Set(DB(test/testing)=${DB(test/testing)}a)
exten = _X.,n,goto(waiting)
{noformat}
made the value length grow up to max. 4096bytes causing asterisk to take up 84% memory on a machine with 4gb ram

also in one of the test a whitespace came out of nowhere:
