Please always post the exact command you run and the output you get. I
can't find anything similar to the error you describe anywhere.

If it were size of a file with IP addresses it is going to be pretty big
list (in range of tens of thousands of entries) but I have just tested
(512MB memory, FreeBSD CURRENT) that I can fill that large a table with
both a series of 'pfctl -t aaa -T add $ip' and pf.conf line 'table <aaa>
file "/file/name"' without problem and I can also create thousands of
tables.
