Description
Related to this issue I believe:https://connect.microsoft.com/sqlserver/feedback/details/311412/sqlceparameter-limits-dbtype-binary-to-8000-characters-ssce3-5
In short: it looks as though Dapper needs to explicitly set the parameter type when binding parameters:
SqlCeParameter paramBlob = cmd.Parameters.Add("blob", SqlDbType.NText);
Any thoughts would be welcomed.

Research direction
Start by locating Dapper's parameter-binding path for SQL CE and compare its behavior with the SqlCeParameter example in the issue. Reproduce the failure using a byte array over 8000 characters; done means SQL CE accepts the parameter without truncation or binding failure.
