For reading in trajectories, there is no limit on the number of frames.
However, some commands load parts of trajectories into main memory, such
as 2Drms; here you could run into memory limits (although you likely would
have disk limits too as 20000*20000 dots in a postscript plot or data dump
would be excessive). You could also run into limits with the storage of
derived data (distances, angles, etc), however I have loaded many more
frames than this... Just the other day I read in 577 trajectory files
with over 600,000 total frames calculating many distances, angles, etc...
What ptraj version are you using?
Try "unlimit stacksize; unlimit memoryuse" on the csh and/or send us more
information to decipher the problem...
