You need to let it rest... there are so many people testing
it that it's getting tired!

8-).

Actually, you need to look at where the error message is
generated, which will tell you that it's running out of
the things returned by "witness_get".  Then increase the
compile time constant that controls them, and you won't
run out any more.

In theory, the only thing that will suffer from this is
that some things will not be "witnessed" correctly, which
means that you could have any of the problems witness
ordinarily catches for you, but not know about them.
