This is just out of mere interest, but is there a limit to the amount of vertecies GL_VERTEX_ARRAY will 'hold' and render through something like drawArrays()? Or could I theoretically pass through a few million vertexes and still be able to call drawArrays()?
A question about GL_VERTEX_ARRAY

Since OpenGL-1.2 a sort of limitation applies when using
glDrawRangeElements
:But that's more of a recommendation, that a hard constraint. Other than that, the true limit is the amount of memory installed, and what can be addressed by the chosen type for the index element array
However the limits for
glDrawRangeElements
usually also make a good indication for batch sizes in general.
