I have no idea what the extreme limits are, and they are going to vary based on the content of the spreadsheet and are unlikely to be an absolute do not exceed value. In any case with a spreadsheet that big, be sure and keep good backups of the last few working versions. (A situation tailor made for Time Machine.) When that spreadsheet fails it will most likely be sudden and complete with no recovery possible.


If we knew what it was we were doing, it wouldn't be called research, would it?
