I'll leave that question to someone who actually knows the answer, but I
seem to recall that on pre-OS X systems the size of the stuff stored in the
variables was also a limiting factor.

We need more information, Thomas. What flavour of the OS are you using? What
version of AppleScript? And what is the nature of the data that you are
storing in these intermittently functioning variables? A bit of sample code
would be useful, too.

Providing so little information is like phoning your doctor to report a
problem of occasional constipation, and expecting a diagnosis without saying
anything about your diet or lifestyle, or sending a stool sample. :-)
