Status: New Owner: ---- New issue 442 by dominic.cooney: Stack limits are too large for OS X defaults http://code.google.com/p/v8/issues/detail?id=442
The default stack size for threads other than the main thread on OS X is 512K (both 32 and 64-bit.) v8's stack overflow limit (kLimitSize in execution.h) is 512K on ia32 and 1MB on x64. Thus v8's stack overflow checks are ineffective on threads with the default stack size on OS X. Further, the v8::SetResourceConstraints API isn't usable for setting the stack limit--StackGuard::StackGuard checks that the stack limit isn't initialized. I believe this is related to v8 issue 61 <http://code.google.com/p/v8/issues/detail?id=61> and Chrome issue <http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=21653> . -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
