Answers
Yeah these days it is usually associated with stress.
The phrase literally means there is too much for something to handle therefore 1 part of it must eventually break.
This can be a reference to someone having a heavy work load, family life and additional stressors on them or a pipe with steam in getting higher and higher pressure.
