Is there a (best practice concerning the) maximum Appstack volume Size?

:smileyinfo: I can not seem to find any specific recommendations regarding the maximum size of an appstack.

We want to create a template file of 50GB or even more. Anyone experience with this scenario?

The default template size is 20GB so if you are to create an appstack that is 50Gb you will need to create a new template with 50GB disk space.

I have heard of writable volumes (not appstacks, I know, but still its just as a reference) that are 100GB large. The maximum file size of the appstack, for as far as I can see, is limited to the file size VMWare supports (somewhere in the terabytes?? Anyone?). So my guess is that 50GB should be easily doable.
