But you have GB's of RAM, right ;-) See EyeInspector>>#limit1 and limit2 that control how much to show in collections, maybe 100000 it too high ;-)
But in general, I think maybe we could use a dedicated EyeStringInspector. I agree that viewing a bigger string in the explorer/tree view is a bit silly, but it is correct though. Maybe #childrenFor[Object]: can be used to shortcut the depth of the tree. For strings characters could then no longer be shown.
