    • Blue Ocean 1.5 - beta 1

      Yesterday I found that I get a stack overflow exception for jobs executing lot of steps.

      The issue does not occur if blue ocean is not installed.

      Most simple solution is to run an echo step inside a loop, e.g.:

      timestamps {
    for (int i = 0; true; ++i) {
        echo i.toString()
    }    
}

      Using default java vm settings this fails mostly at about loop count ~ 4600+.

      Hope there's an easy way to fix this.

      Error message is as follows:

      <snip>
15:36:10 4605
[Pipeline] echo
15:36:10 4606
[Pipeline] End of Pipeline

          Looking at the code it should be quite easy to fix. Just need to replace the recursive call in getParentBlock() by a loop. I  would be willing to give it a try - however until now I didn't do any Jenkins plugin development.

          For use this might become blocking in the near future.

          jdumay: Why is this one down-prioritized? The bug is a complete show stopper for using Blue Ocean on our team.
