There are two versions of this function. a jQuery one and a non-jQuery one. The non-jQuery one came first. There are some improvements in the jQuery one (which, if I'm honest, is the one I use). I knew about the out of memory crashes, but for dumping a query result set like the original author was talking about, this is a very good tool (imo).
It would be nice if it didn't try to expand every single section but instead allow for lazy loading of those pieces that the user wants to click on to expand. I figure that would take care of some instances of the out of memory crashes (which I rarely run into, unless I'm trying to dump top or document or window,etc.).
