Enomoto,

large is relative and functionality will also depend upon the machine you
are running on.

if you read in variable that is (1560,34,64,128) and then try to do complex
calculations that involve the duplication of this size, you will run into
memory issues on the machine you are running on.

on the other hand, if you try to plot a 2D variable that is (1000,1000), you
will exceed ncl's default graphics memory of 16mb. You can increase this.

See the discussion on "data too large to plot" at:
