The database is probably limited to 2^64-1 record IDs. Filling that space
is going to take a while. A *long* while.

I have no idea how big the average bug is, but I doubt that disk
space is a limiting factor for the foreseeable future -- generously
assuming 100k, that'd be ten million bugs per TByte-sized disk.

When a place gets crowded enough to require ID's, social collapse is not
far away.  It is time to go elsewhere.  The best thing about space travel
is that it made it possible to go elsewhere.
