Although there has been the odd bug over the years, there is no intrinsic limit to the length of a tiddler in TiddlyWiki. It's possible that we've accidentally re-introduced an old bug, or perhaps that you've discovered a new one. Either way, I'm sure we'll get to the bottom of it.
Could you let me know what version of TiddlyWiki you are using, what plugins you are using, and what operating system and browser you are using. If you are using a lot of plugins it would be useful if you were able to try to reproduce the behaviour without them.

This is a bit weird since it's not 2^k-1 (the nearest 2^k is > 32768).
