Sigh.  My experience with the pickle module says that it's always
fragile.  It looks like a nice way to serialize objects, but there's a
lot that can go wrong.

It would be good to understand what's going wrong here, though; I've
never seen this error either.  I'm not opposed to raising the limit, but
I do wonder if we're papering over the problem and missing the real fix.

Thanks,
