error message "could not transform because the result would be too big" for puppet warp

I am getting the message "could not transform because the result would be too big" when trying to apply puppet warp in a very large file (2.1 GB).  Is this because of the file size?  Is there a workaround?  Thanks.

What are the file’s pixel dimensions, Color Mode, bit depth, … and what are the affected Layer’s pixel dimensions?

Could you please post a screenshot with the pertinent Panels (Layers, Channels, Options Bar, …) visible?

I flattened the image was able to use puppet warp, so I believe it's being such a large file plus a Smart Object made the puppet work unworkable.  I did this before getting your reply, but thanks.  I'll remember to include more information about the file in the future.
