--- Comment #7 from John Baldwin <jhb at FreeBSD.org> ---
The current limit is 32MB.  You can change it at a compile time via 'make
EFI_STAGING_SIZE=<MB>' for sys/boot/efi/loader. (or sys/boot/amd64/efi on
stable/10).  Prior to r279929 (merged to stable in r281319) loading too many
modules would just corrupt memory.  Now it reports an error at least. :)

It may be that we should revisit the default staging size of 32MB and bump it
up to 48MB or so.  When testing the fixes mentioned above I was able to boot a
200+MB mfsroot with a sufficiently large staging size.
