Found this tidbit in the Google trashcan (aka cache) and it saved me, so I thought I'd resurrect it a bit here:

Beware of Sending Long Strings to Workflow History
Sometimes we need to see what is going on within our workflows by writing values to the history log for debugging, informative or other purposes. However, the log accepts up to 255 characters. Anything longer, and the workflow is suspended with this cryptic error message:
Suspend this workflow

Of course, if you are already trying to debug, this can be a bit frustrating until you finally figure out that it is the actual debug statement that is breaking your workflow. Once it is suspended, you must Terminate this workflow or delete the list item to move on.
