The max value for that is 2^31, or about 2 billion (and some change).
Are you sure you do not have an eternal loop in your source?

The number of objects I have is clearly less than 2^31, so my problem is
elsewhere then.

I do not think this a loop problem, because the same code runs ok for 15
000 objects, but give an error for 18 000 objects. I’m working to build a
minimal example.

Thanks a lot for the help ! Much appreciated.

Fabrice.



Best wishes,
Taco
