Ploop v1 image size limitation comes from the fact that unsigned 32 bit integer is used to store sector address inside the ploop image. Therefore the maximum number of sectors is 232, which is 4294967295. As sector size is 512 bytes, 4294967295 sectors are equal to 2 terabytes. As the first megabyte of the image is used for header and L2 translation table, maximum image size is decreased by 1MB.
