Is there some memory limits in stack item in iOS?

Question

I want 1 MB sized NSData object with all bytes set to 255.

Method where I want to run this code crashes on EXC_BAD_ACCESS:

const size_t size = 1024 * 1024;
uint8_t bytes[size] = {[0 ...size - 1] = 255};
NSData *data = [NSData dataWithBytes:bytes length:size];
NSLog(@"%@", data);
