What's that size? I'm not aware of any size restriction in the current
/dev/clipboard code. Well, there's an allocation when writing to the
clipboard, but it's only restricted by the size of the largest available
memory block in the process VM, in theory.
After some testing, the limit seems to be 64k. It only happens when
reading data that was copied to the clipboard by a Windows program (in
this case Excel).
This sounds pretty much like the same observation I made in
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2012-06/msg00521.html
At that time, however, the problem was finally fixed, so (not yet having
checked again, sorry) could the old problem have crept in again somehow?
