DozerDB has not implemented higher formats yet because most use cases do not require it.

The standard record format already supports around 34 billion nodes and relationships, which is far beyond what most use cases require. In practice, hardware resources (disk, RAM, CPU) will become the limiting factor long before those theoretical caps are reached.

The high-limit record format simply sets aside more bits (I think it was 48 compared to 40 in the standard format), pushing the limits even higher.

If there were ever a real-world need to exceed the standard format, adopting the high-limit format would be a straightforward change.
