There's no direct limit on the number of vertices, only
on memory usage which combines everything from textures
and vertices to multiple copies for multiprocessing.

The default shared arena size is 256MB. So the effective limit
is the lesser of this and the amount of swap space you have.
The arena size can be increased by calling pfSharedArenaSize()
before pfInit().

If the loader uses 1.2's pfBuilder, you may be rather limited
by that. It created a lot of rather large data structures
during database loading. 2.0 is much better in this regard.
