I have been seeing this prompt for all my years of experience with VAST.

It made sense when we had 50 MHz computers. But perhaps it is time to bump up the threshold?
Since arbitrary numeric limits always become problematic, a setting initialized to e.g. SmallInteger largest would be the way to go.

Hi Richard,
late, but not too, late, I hope.
Ancient. To support flexible limits the treshhold was made flexible, 1996 (29 years ago at least) this was provided, run

EtWorkspace fileSizeConfirmThreshold: SmallInteger largest

(or any other integer limit) to fullfill your wish.

Save the image if you want to keep the new limit.

Kind regards
M

Thanks, Marcus!
(Sometimes, I am the least curious person I know.)
