No. It used to be an assert. But as you're not the first to run into
this limitation, the assert has been downgraded to a warning. In 3.11.0
(and later) the code reads like this:

   if (len >= 5000000)
      VG_(message)(Vg_DebugMsg,
                   "warning: DiCfSI %#lx .. %#lx is huge;...........

Perhaps you're using a differnet valgrind version?
