Buffer sizes can get big very fast, and the previous limit of 64MB is easily hit nowadays. I hit this problem while working on better multi-gpu copies for KWin, where on my 5120x1440 monitor with scaling applied, some apps ended up using a resolution of 8192x2304, resulting in buffer sizes of roughly 75MB. As another reference, with merely 32 bits per pixel, buffers reach - 33MB for 4k - 133MB for 8k - 530MB for 16k With 64bpp, those sizes would be doubled, and even 4k would hit the previous 64MB limit.
