At the moment, we only display the last 10000 messages (the value set in the devtools.hud.loglimit
pref), to avoid consuming too much memory/having too much messages that would make the console struggle rendering them.
With Bug 1753177, the cost of displaying messages should be dramatically lowered, so maybe we could reconsider this hard limit.
One of the case we hear people complain about is them leaving the Browser Console open overnight/multiple days to the point it slows down everything.
We could have a time limit instead of a message count limit, so any messages that are more than X minutes/hours are automatically stripped out (using a setInterval
+ requestIdleCallback
or something)
