[Pkg-javascript-devel] Bug#1030284: nodejs: [arm64] RangeError: Maximum call stack size exceeded

[James Addison]

Package: nodejs
Followup-For: Bug #1030284

Echoing some notes and findings from the GitHub issue thread:

  * https://crbug.com/405338 seems inaccessible to at least two people

  * https://codereview.chromium.org/555943003 was initially proposed to resolve
    that bug

  * https://codereview.chromium.org/583163002 was chosen instead, for reasons
    of simplicity and performance concerns

It is the latter codereview (583163002) that introduced the reduction in the
stack size on ARM (that the patch in this bug thread removes).

I'm planning to write to the V8 contributors mailing list to summarize these
findings and ask whether they have any guidance/recommendations.
