Hello&nbsp;Yaron,&nbsp;  
&nbsp;&nbsp;  
&nbsp;We&nbsp;don’t&nbsp;have&nbsp;size&nbsp;limitation&nbsp;for&nbsp;RasterLayer,&nbsp;though&nbsp;it&nbsp;will&nbsp;be&nbsp;slow&nbsp;to&nbsp;open&nbsp;the&nbsp;big&nbsp;size&nbsp;of&nbsp;file,&nbsp;but&nbsp;it&nbsp;will&nbsp;working.&nbsp;  
&nbsp;&nbsp;  
&nbsp;Could&nbsp;you&nbsp;please&nbsp;provide&nbsp;a&nbsp;sample&nbsp;to&nbsp;us&nbsp;to&nbsp;recreate&nbsp;this?&nbsp;  
&nbsp;&nbsp;  
&nbsp;Regards,&nbsp;
