[PD-dev] maximum array display size 2000 points?

Hi Hans,

I'm inviting you to the discussion :)  Can you have a look at this  
paragraph from Miller?

Do you think it would be a good idea to remove this? As I understand, this  
limit happens in all OSs, right?

If you think this is worthwhile, can you comment it out in the nightly  
builds, so that in the next days it can be tested? Since there is no zoom  
in the arrays, I wanted to make an array with 5000+ points (and scroll the  
window).

Best,

João
