Hi,

Also a good idea.... In our tests we got problems with arrays >52000

As of the fact that the stack might be longer in some cases, it might be
good
enough to set the limit to about 32768 (isn't that a fine number)?
I don't think 32768 is a good choice:
1/ It let casual reader of the code thinking that it may have something
to do with 2^15. He'll start to worry that, maybe, therte is a signed 2
byte number somewhere.
2/ It is way too big, as it would use more than half of the stack.
I would suspect that the good number is around 100.
Cheers,
