I am executing code on a game that has nested loops and the intersections can be long, so long in fact that the print statements in the second loop quit after n records then the table exits get a little reddish along with an hourglass present. What is the number of prints prior to CE not being able to process them?

That's up to windows , message buffer, and how fast your system is.

but you can prevent the lockup by not running the code in the same thread as the GUI, or process the messages so windows won't think CE has frozen

e.g:
Code:

for i=1,8000 do
  print(i)
  processMessagesPaintOnly()
end


without the processMessagesPaintOnly() command CE would freeze for me at around 1800

Interesting. I did it another way, just commented out the print statement.
Thanks
