The problem seems to be the size of the code, i. e. the dict literal rather
than the size of the dictionary. With a slightly smaller dict I get
$ cat make_dict_source.py
from itertools import chain, count, islice
def main():
import argparse
parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
parser.add_argument("n", type=int, default=100)
parser.add_argument("py")
args = parser.parse_args()
prefix = ["data = {\n"]
suffix = ["}\n"]
pairs = ("'enum_whatever_{0}': {0},\n".format(i) for i in count())
pairs = islice(pairs, args.n)
with open(args.py, "w") as outstream:
lines = chain(prefix, pairs, suffix)
outstream.writelines(lines)
if __name__ == "__main__":
main()
$ python make_dict_source.py 4000 tmp.py
$ jython tmp.py

$ jython --version
Jython 2.2.1 on java1.6.0_0
Jython seems to generate a method that is bigger than the 64K allowed by
Java.
The simplest workaround is probably to let your module read the dict data
from a separate file in e. g. csv format.
