More specifically, it copies no more than 1024 characters (tested both on 4.2-RELEASE and 4.4-RELEASE (fill one of your virtual consoles with text, then select all screen, then switch to another console, start "cat >file" and paste the text, then press ^D twice - you'll see that file size will be no more than 1024).
