Hmm, that's strange, because when I try to create a JSONB value that is
larger than 256MB I get the following error:

    ERROR: total size of jsonb object elements exceeds the maximum of 268435455 bytes

Are you sure you are using jsonb, not json maybe?
To my knowledge the json data type does not have this limit.
