Note, the crashtest here occasionally triggers stack-overflows in automation: see bug 1825414 (and dupes bug 1866878 and bug 1868113 that I just added for recent instances).  In [one log that I looked at](https://firefoxci.taskcluster-artifacts.net/djUUx2-5RtyJ-_DLLooi8g/0/public/logs/live_backing.log), the backtrace has a backtrace that's 3672 levels deep.

Not sure if that's surprising or not, but we might want to consider reducing the 1000 depth if that's expected to be directly-proportional to the stacktrace depth.

Not sure if that's surprising or not, but we might want to consider reducing the 1000 depth if that's expected to be directly-proportional to the number of callstack levels.

In [one log that I looked at](https://firefoxci.taskcluster-artifacts.net/djUUx2-5RtyJ-_DLLooi8g/0/public/logs/live_backing.log), we've got a backtrace that's 3672 levels deep when we crash.

Not sure if that's surprising or not, but we might want to consider reducing the 1000 depth if that's expected to be directly-proportional to the number of callstack levels.
