Applying tinyify to plotly.js crashes Node

Inizia eseguendo il repository di esempio all’indirizzo https://github.com/m90/tinyify-crash con la configurazione segnalata Node v10.9.0, quindi esamina node_modules/transform-ast/index.js intorno a addHelpers e confronta tinyify con la pipeline funzionante di uglifyjs. Il lavoro è completato quando il bundle di Plotly.js viene completato con tinyify senza bloccarsi né esaurire l’heap di Node.

I'm trying to optimize a bundle that contains the (rather hefty) plotly.js library.

When I pass -p tinyify to my bundling command it will hang for quite a while and then crash, printing the following:

When I omit the plugin, I can bundle things just fine. I also can pipe the bundle through uglifyjs --mangle just fine.

I created a repo with an example case here: https://github.com/m90/tinyify-crash

As for Node internals, I am running the following on Ubuntu 16:

➜  ~ node -v
v10.9.0
➜  ~ npm -v
6.4.0
