The only practical limitation is the pointer size of your machine, so
32-bit machine can't address more than 4Gb, and R probably won't get all
of that.
Further out, R will run into problems if you try to have a vector with
more than 2^31 elements (since length() returns an integer), and probably
if you have more than 2^31 objects. I would guess that there are tighter
limitations implied by the .rda save format.
