What do developers think the maximum file size of a json file should be before it starts to slow the interaction process, find, filter, forEach, etc javascript workflow down, or doesnt it matter?

I think parsing and string size limits depend on the platform & server environment.

JSON files have a maximum limit of 18,446,744,073,709,551,616 characters. That's Eighteen quintillion, four hundred and forty-six quadrillion, seven hundred and forty four trillion, seventy three billion, seven hundred and nine million, five hundred and fifty one thousand, six hundred and sixteen.

Thanks for that, I'd still be interested to know in terms of max kbs/mbs what the json file size should be. I could be wrong but I would have thought the more lines of text in it the more time it would take to process a request. Just trying to figure out if there is any suggested max-size before things start slowing down.

I never thought in terms of size limitation (and it is an excellent question that you raised there), but for information, that made years that I function thus, that is to say call with a data base (INNER JOIN obliges... massive DATAS back) and global return of the information in the form of JSON, then in order to avoid the requests inter pages, I store directly JSON in the localstorage (PWA obliges) and that functions marvelously...

judicious choice that you made there, 😉
