Painful limitcheck

Hi boys,
I've got a painful problem with gs, and also a PS printer, that I do not
understand well (guess why I ask you!).
I wrote a PS output for our vlsi cad system that takes a cell as input and
produces some PS file, so I can generate small and big examples without pain.

The small PS files work well, but the big ones generate a ``limitcheck''
error under gs.
Hint : using the Sparc pageview previewer, and the NewsPrint interpreter on
the SparcPrinter work all right for both small and big examples!

Is there some know limitations of gs?
I'd like to be able to print plots on any PS device, so gs is a good candidate,
and our system manager wants to use in the near futur gs as raterizer for
the SparPrinter.
So I'm stucked with that problem, and I'd greatly appriciate some pointer on
that.

Thanks.

Fred.

P.S : I do not send any example, because it's too much for the net.
