Using a scroll_buffer_size of 2^30(1073741824) or bigger fails with "Received empty message from server", while 1073741823 works. This is quite a bit below the documented range of "positive integers", and even below the realistically expected range of a u32
There is no indication as to why it failed, nor any apparent reason for this to fail. I have 64 GiB of RAM, and plenty of it free.
The reason I have/want it so high is because theres no "unlimited" option, and I need my scrollback to persist unless and until I clear it, as well as an attempt to work around #2041
Zellij does, however, attach to existing sessions just fine no matter the value. I assume it is being ignored.

Sadly, it won't help: The "buffer full" messages refer to the IPC channel between the zellij server and client process and h as nothing to do with the scrollback buffer.
