This PR adds a new option to
Config,MaxMarshalledBytes, which allows limiting the size of the marshalled output. By default, it is 0 and enforces no limit (ie. the same behaviour as today).This is useful in services where marshalling a large payload could consume a large amount of memory and therefore be a denial of service vector.
I don't love that I've used
panichere, but I couldn't see any other way that wouldn't cause a backwards-incompatible change, particularly custom encoders.Running the benchmarks in
benchmarksshow no significant impact to performance as a result of this change.
