Resolution

Segment offsets within the r-code have been widened to 32 bit quantities. Since OpenEdge 10 they have a reach of 2 GB.

r-code is stored in a file and the maximum file size for r-code is 2 GB.

The total of all the segments is limited to 2 GB.

Individual segments are limited to 4 MB maximum.

Frame segments are limited to 32k.

With segments 4 MB in size or less, it is possible to have approximately 500 segments total.
If all segments are 1 MB or less it is possible to have at most about 2,000 segments.
