[pypy-dev] Size limit

[Tuom Larsen]

Thanks, even trace_limit=9000 is sufficient in my case!

That heuristic would be most awesome so that other people don't have
to manually override the limit. I'm guessing it is more complicated
than that but simplify lifting the limit to, say, 12000 wouldn't
suffice?
