I guess it happens if you use multiplyDbSize (which you should not use

Nothing really... In case of realurl it is possible to decrease index 
part for value_alias but this will impact performance.

Nothing really, because it is already fixed for multiplyDbSize=1 and you 
still can put multiplyDbSize to whatever you want (2, 10, 100, 10000) 
and get this error.
