Take a look at this page as well:

https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/markrussinovich/2010/02/24/pushing-the-limits-of-windows-user-and-gdi-objects-part-1/

It's outdated but still might be interesting, to clarify things.

There is a utility there 'TestLimits64.exe' that might be useful for you.

However I already tried several things, inspired by that page, 1 year ago or so, like increasing the size of the Desktop Heap and the memory available for the User and GDI objects, but with very little improvement.

If I remember correctly, you need to alter manually the registry, but, even doing that I was able to draw only 3/4 more charts.

may be I missed some additional steps. If you find a solution to this, would be great if you could share it.

If you are one of those persons that have a paid license for your Windows OS, I'd would go straight to ask them about this.

It's possible that is not that 'they don't know how to overcome this', but instead, a limitation on purpose for some reason.

you know, like those cars that have their speed limited electronically by the maker.

After all, it mustn't be that common for people to run into this kind of limit.

Cheers.
