we occasionally have to use such high values due to publishers demands 
but keep in mind that the solution space becomes pretty small, so if the 
rest of the output looks less optimal: don't complain (personally for me 
it's always the moment that i try to hide the fact that tex is used)

automated typesetting fulfilling all constraints is in most cases (read: 
always) impossible so among the options are: inject an occasional manual 
pagebreak (once the context is fixed) or adapt the content in real nasty 
cases
