This seems to be OS-specific.  Like you, I found that there were 
troubles displaying more than 40,000 characters on OS X, but on XP I was 
able to put more than 50,000 characters before it had trouble displaying.

On neither OS X nor XP was I able to display 65,535 characters without 
difficulty.

I wonder what the determining factor is?
