Pretty much as described in the title. We use packet tables to stream data
from test systems. Each packet table consists of a table of compound types,
C.
Each C is identical in size within the table (fixed size packet table), and
consists of: 
32 bit int               
32 bit unsigned int <== 1st two ints represent a timestamp
16 bit int  <== the origin of the data in the system
32 bit int 
data - array N of <type>

Now, if N is <= 32760 then we can AppendPacket ok.
If N is (for example) 49000, AppendPacket fails.

Searching the forum suggests this may be related to the article by

This is not a complete killer for us yet, since such large arrays are not
currently used by our customers, BUT, 32760 is a very small number to hit as
a limit. 
Anyone got any ideas?
****NOTE**** the email address I set this forum account up with has been
replaced by the IT department with the same one, but with ".external"
inserted just before the @ symbol. Anyone know how I change my forum account
settings?
Cheers,
