util: limit inspection output size to 128 MB by BridgeAR · Pull Request #22756 · nodejs/node
The maximum hard limit that `util.inspect()` could theoretically handle is the maximum string size. That is ~2 ** 28 on 32 bit systems and ~2 ** 30 on 64 bit systems. Due to the recursive algorithm a complex object could easily exceed that limit without throwing an error right away and therefore crashing the application by exceeding the heap limit. `util.inspect()` is fast enough to compute 128 MB of data below one second on an Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-5600U CPU. This hard limit allows to inspect arbitrary big objects from now on without crashing the application or blocking the event loop significantly.
