The maximum depth for a search is 1000UL
It assumes if you're more that 1000 deep into the tree that it's encountered a loop.
It sounds like you're using tf in an unusual manner. You could open a ticket to discuss extending the search depth or improve loop detection. However it's a performance critical code path so it might be better to allow overriding the search depth but not change the default.
