Limit the number of frames shown to prevent browser crashes

[calvinalkan]

Hello,

I have used whoops for some months in a project where I built a custom error handler that integrates nicely with whoops.

Recently I noticed that when an exception gets thrown after a relativly "large" stack trace (maybe 100 frames in whoops ) the error page initially rendors correctly bit as soon as I click one different frame in the side panel my entire browser freezes and then crashes. Tried in chrome and firefox on two pcs.

Is this to be expected? I could not find anything in the docs regarding setting a frame limit.

Thank you,

Calvin

Could you create a test case which reproduces the problem?

I suppose a setting to show only the top x frames could make sense to work around any limitations in the browser. A PR is welcome.

I’ve added this to the list of possible features to add.
