There is no such limit in any version of POV-Ray.  Any claim there is such
an limit other than that of the platform you are running on (which is the
per application memory limit, 2 or 4 GB on Windows) is false.  This is true
for any platform POV-Ray runs on, and no matter if it is an official or
unofficial version.

It is a fundamental technical fact that there cannot a different limit
except an application has been specifically designed this way.  Software is
_no_ magic, and there are no esoteric limits of this kind in POV-Ray.  All
limits that do exist, for example the 256 entry limit in blend maps, will
result in a proper error message, not some random problem.
