From bug 1453591 comment 139: > From my understanding, we build up one contiguous string buffer to hold all the JSON data. > Bug 1457624 has some rough numbers on what we assume the payload sizes could be here. > > This means that we might get contiguous buffer sizes of 30kb+ for release and 400kb+ for nightly. > Is that realistic to allocate successfully without streaming? We should investigate if this becomes a problem for GeckoView. If it does, then we should implement our own strategy for chunked JSON parsing.

Given the new GV Streaming Telemetry approach in bug 1566340 and the deprecation of non-Glean-SDK methods of data collection in mobile products, this work isn't going to happen.
