…his will result in Buffers being allocated to the size requested up to kMaxLength (0x3fffffff) instead of the current behavior of always allocating kMaxLength. Since these buffers are allocated in the node external memory (limited to 64M) the old behavior would very quickly cause massive GC pressure as the GC is triggered on each new Buffer allocation once the node external memory limit is reached. It appears the old behavior was not intentional and should have always been std::min(). This should fix node-ffi-napi#72
…an the current request. This is likely what drove the problematic max size allocation

@addaleax by chance is it possible this to be reviewed and/or merged? It's solving our performance issues in Node.Js 18. However, as @blattersturm mentioned in #72, in Node 14 and 16 does not work because it's throwing |
