Feature request: handle memory overflow #1215

sorawee commented 6 years ago

From a student in CS173: If Pyret really exhausts memory, Pyret should stop the program gracefully, not crashing the tab in browser.

Chrome, with its proprietary performance.memory API, is basically the only browser we could do this for.

Sigh. Yeah.

I think we need to wait for browser tech on this one.
