It is a very old limitation, that one row (including the
systems per row information and ALL attribute values) cannot
exceed 8K - pageheader.
800 vertices is 1600 double precision floats is 12800 bytes.
We actually discuss how to tackle that problem in a future
release. And that far we know about a solution that could
make your problem go away. What we don't have is a consensus
on, and implementation of this solution.
