Does anyone know what the input file size limitation is for a source card?

There is NO input file size limitations. This is how and why :
If the input file is small (<2 GB approx.) , the TX map can be run in "Integral" mode, which means that the input data is fetched all at once in memory and then processed.
If the input file size is larger ( >2 GB approx.), the TX map can be run in "Burst" mode which means the input data is read as smaller chunks of data and then processed. This way the whole data is processed by multiple fetches.
Hope this is clear.
