hm, if I make a .crm like

# crm '-{window; isolate (:x: :v:) //; input (:x:) [/dev/urandom]
#         eval (:v:) /:#:x:/; output /v=:*:v:\n/}'


I get an error since :x: has grown up at 8M; and if it slurps in a 6MB file
I get v=6M, so seems the only limit in effect is the buffer length 
controlled by -w opt. What do you get on your side?
