No recommended size for regular local profiles. Your 'profile' is made up
of so many different files/folders. It could be a few GB up into the 100's
of GBs... Most of it is not touched unless you tell it to be. Desktop is
just a folder full of files. My Documents is the same thing - as well as
all the subfolders of My Documents.

That is *not* correct - at least not anymore - and it wasn't really
corruption as much as it just had file-size limitations and you had to
archive your mail. I mean - I would not recommend anyone to allow their PST
file to grow super-large (undoubtedly - they could have archived LONG before
it got to any huge size...) - but the size limit no longer exists at the
same level (2GB or so) as it did with Office XP.
