I saw the 500 now, it is quite intermittent.

= h
:var: abc

{var}

in asciidoctor should render as:

<h1>h

<p>abc

so I was trying to create a huge variable to see if things blow up.

Github runs Asciidoctor quite natively, so any adoc blowups lead to 500s, e.g. a previous one; https://twitter.com/cirosantilli/status/1283339613814370304

I forgot why these specific sizes were chosen. You can't just pick arbitrarily large because github cuts up file rendering at 512 KB: isaacs/github#1610 so pointless going beyond that.

OK, remembered now, it was close to optimum, you have to optimize f(x, y) with x + 3y = 512KiB. Exact result is x = 256KiB and y = 512Kib/6. Previous script just did 512Kib/8to stay in power of 2. I got it closer to the limit now with85 * (2 ** 10)`.

We have to see if it is possible to add HTML in the variable. Then we can make the output much larger even. ( as it stands, out of memory killer already kills it on my Linux machine). Edit, didn't work:

= h
:a: *c*

{a}{a}{a}

does not expand * into <i>.

(I don't understand why sometimes GitHub does not try to render and shows just the plaintext and does not blow up. For some reason 2 ** 15 blows more often.)

[cuj]

And please delete all of my issues under cirosantilli/test-git-web-interface. Thanks @cirosantilli

Can I ask why? Why not delete account and re-create it instead with same handle for example, so that everything goes to ghost?
