Is there any max value? Possibly because the underlying OS does allow only ‘X’ number of threads per process, etc.?

There is always some maximum value, but what it is and how it is determined varies wildly. Among other things, the limit can be implicitly imposed by the total memory allocation pool limit on the JVM or by explicit OS-level restrictions. One way to get around the memory limit is to configure the JVM with lower stack size.
See this answer to find out how the limit is determined on Linux.
