There should be no limit however you must have enough memory to handle the system on your machine in order to perform a calculation on it.

Depending on the number of atoms in your electrode before you perform the repetition, it might require somewhat of your graphics card to draw all the atoms. On my machine I can easily have 3000 atoms in the bulk builder.
