The ctrl-shift-v paste buffer in IntelliJ is great, but only holds 5 items. Is it possible to increase the size of this buffer?

Searching within IntelliJ settings hasn't shown up anything, neither has google.
open "File" => "Settings..." => "Editor" => "General" => "Console" activate "Override console cycle buffer size" from its default value of 1024kB to your needs. restart the IDE.
Set the caret anywhere in the line to copy the whole line, or make a selection to copy. Press Ctrl+C or choose Edit | Copy from the main menu .
Go to:
File > Settings > Editor > Limits > Maximum number of contents to keep in clipboard
...and change the number.
Update for IntelliJ 14 and Android Studio 1.2
In new versions, it appears under a slightly different level in the menu...
Go to:
File > Settings > Editor > General
Then scroll down to find:
Limits > Maximum number of contents to keep in clipboard
If they decide to move it again, you can always just search for "max clipboard", that is:
Then type "max clipboard" in the dialog that comes up.
