Comment #2 on issue 3505 by [email protected]: Are limits on
FixedArray etc really needed?
http://code.google.com/p/v8/issues/detail?id=3505
Frankly, I'd rather not touch array limits. There are lots and lots of
places in the code that have to perform size checks and potentially have to
deal with overflow, and I suspect many of them were written under the
assumption that array size is limited to 512MB. I'm not convinced that use
cases requiring bigger arrays are important enough to outweigh the risk of
introducing size check related bugs.
At the very least, any attempt to bump the limits should be done after a
thorough refactoring of array/object size checking code using
CheckedNumeric.
