Interesting - the precise case where I got the error was

   a =. 5 ? (100000000 # 52)
|limit error
|   a=.5    ?(100000000#52)

(I wasn't actually trying to display a 100M entry array - it simply
hadn't occurred to me that the error might only occur in some
contexts).

What exactly is the "limit" that is being exceeded here? And is there
any way round it (given that creating arrays of shape 100000000 5
isn't a problem in itself)?

Paul.
