The upper write limit is 128k in the 32 bit version. Isn't that a bit more
than 512 characters?

Hpt has proven that Squish doesn't need this limit in 32-bit environments,
because it's Squish compatible and it doesn't have the limit. It'll process
anything as long as you have enough memory on your system.
