JMS modular input 1.5.1 - how to resolve phyton error OSError: [Errno 7] Argument list too long

Hi,
I have 124 entries configured, but I can only enable 102, and if I enable one after 102, the following error message appears. Is there any configuration where the maximum number of inputs for the jms module is limited? Thanks!
