I think you'll get different results depending on the combinations of
tecnologies you use...

Nagios Core: It looks like it will internally manage more data than is
documented. Although it will only let you see until a limit in the CGIs
NDO: will cut the data, and mess up if there is too much data.
NSCA: will cut data to 512 bytes.

Read this thread for more info:

If you want to send big passive results to nagios that don't get
truncated at 512 bytes, give http://code.google.com/p/nsca2/ a look.
Drop me a mail if you need help with it ;)

Cheers,
