[ios][2.5.0] More than ~100 console.log's freezes app resulting in crashed CLI

[roblav96]

Steps to reproduce

let i: number, len: number = 1000
for (i = 0; i < len; i++) {
	console.log('i hope u dont crash :X', i)
}

It gets up to ~100 then the app freezes completely thus resulting a crashed CLI.

Hey @roblav96

I've tried to reproduce this issue but to no avail. Here is the test app I have created and tested on both iOS and Android. Please post more information about the environment on which you are testing (CLI , runtimes, modules versions, Nodejs, etc,)

@NickIliev hey, it's only on a device and a bit sporadic. I notice it more after an hour of developing.

@NathanaelA @NickIliev I can 100% confirm this is a bug on 2.5.3. It is an issue for both iOS and Android while developing on real devices; NOT simulators. I'll try and whip up a demo today.

Hey @roblav96,
I am still unable to reproduce this. I am using 3.0.0 of our CLI and a real iOS device to try to reproduce it. Can you give us sample app that reproduces it every time?

[roblav96]

@pkoleva I have not tried this on the latest v3 RC. I will and let you know. Thank you =]
