Rob,

There shouldn't be size limit for h5repack. Unfortunately it is hard to say 
what could be wrong without information about the objects in the file. Could 
you please describe your data and its characteristics (dataset sizes, for 
example)?

You may try to specify chunk size using -l option and see what will happen.
