question about storage limits

[debrouxl]

critor's attempts to transfer HP PPL programs generated by the TI-Planet mViewer GX Creator showed that it's hard to achieve reliable file transfers larger than ~1 MB. Above that, frequent data corruption during transfer and calculator crashes - not to mention that transferring 1 MB takes dozens of seconds.
Due to those transfer-related reasons, notes are certainly subject to the same kind of "soft" limit as programs. The definite "hard" limits on size which I can think of are much higher: the Prime's NAND Flash memory is 256 MB large (a firmware upgrade is ~37 MB, the filesystem can be up to 200+ MB), and the higher-level transfer protocol uses 32-bit sizes, so a limit of 4 GB.

Additionally, several places in the Prime's OS still contain arbitrary size limits of 999 inherited from the 39gII, which has much less RAM. Other people are more knowledgeable than I am about those places
