Chances are good that Im doing something ignorant here.
Unfortunately, I think chances are better that there's some serialisation bug in SOAP::Lite ;)

Obviously the size of the data-structure should have no impact on serialisation. If you've tested at just below and just above 0x3FFF and can repeat the result, then report a bug. There are many 1+ year old bugs there so I don't know whether that will help, but documenting the bug can't hurt.

The serialisation classes don't look too complicated... you may wish to have a go at debugging this yourself.

Martin Kutter would seem to be the active maintainer (someone please correct me if necessary), so you could probably direct any questions (which get raised in tracking it down yourself) to him. Martin wrote SOAP::WSDL (one of my favourite modules) which takes the hassle out of the client-side... I'm pretty sure he understands the SOAP::Lite codebase well ;)
