I suppose should be no problem to letting the size of the view grow to infinity - as long as I'm not drawing any more of it. I guess I just have to get over the mental hurdle.

Note that there is a practical limit to the size of an NSView, beyond which all sorts of funkiness occurs (visible as drawing artefacts) as a consequence of CoreGraphics using floats, and thus having very much finite precision. It depends on your particular code as to when exactly you'll see problems, but I wouldn't let any view (inside a scrollview) get more than 10,000,000 pixels in any dimension.


(I know that sounds huge, but it's pretty easy to naively hit if you're not careful)

Are you sure about the magnitude of your dimension there? I was under the impression (potentially mistaken) that the problems started around 10,000 (ten thousand) instead of 10,000,000 (10 million).
