Of course I have tried it. I'm not that stupit so as to embarrass myself in
the very first e-mail (that's what second one is for ;). And what is the
key limit, I haven't noticed anything like that in the help. Also I was
able to feed about 2k keys and still did not hit the limit. And 2k of
characters is pretty much to do a lot of nasty stuff, just imagine what
small and stupid fork bomb can do here.
