[jira] [Commented] (ASTERIXDB-2496) Error response to an overly large object is very misleading

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ASTERIXDB-2496?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16718472#comment-16718472 ] 

Michael J. Carey commented on ASTERIXDB-2496:
---------------------------------------------

(The JSON object was probably the most ill-designed example of JSON that I have ever seen - but - very interested, and thought-provoking. :))

> If you try to LOAD a JSON object that exceeds the system's limit, it complains as follows:
> ASX3021: Malformed input stream [HyracksDataException]
> This is not very helpful to users - I spent awhile today with one such user.  He had been given a "data set" in the form of a JSON dump file from Firebase, and it contained exactly one HUGE JSON document.  That object was about 90MB, but it was not malformed - it was perfectly good JSON that was parsable by Javascript's JSON parser, so the user was puzzled.
> In this case the system should have reported that the size was the problem, e.g., "Incoming object exceeded system size limit".
