// The number of lines that are displayed in the console output by default, for
// each category. The user can change this number by adjusting the hidden
// "devtools.hud.loglimit.{network,cssparser,exception,console}" preferences.
const DEFAULT_LOG_LIMIT = 200;

You can change the devtools.hud.loglimit.console to 500 even more to solve this problem.
