This is kinda interesting.

• The provided example, 1e100000000000000, immediately throws a stack overflow.
• Much smaller examples, like 1e1000, simply evaluate, though progressively slower, as you would expect.
• But inbetween examples, like 1e1000000, simply keep running, not throwing an error but taking up all the CPU so that nothing else can run in that tab:
