Did you not see my reply pointing out the same thing? That is, given a
particular platform and executable format the limit is likely to be much
less than math.MaxInt. Alternatively, was my reply not clear about the
practical versus theoretical limit of the size of an array? Which is not to
say that your reply is invalid. I'm just curious how you view your reply as
being more clear than mine. :-)
