The disadvantage of this idea is that it would fail to test bignums at all.

If we do restrict things to fixnums, then on 64-bit systems an appropriate de facto limit would be 2^55 - 1 (MIT).

I think it would be good if max-int is a fixnum on 32-bit machines.

Perhaps

(define max-int (expt 2 24))
