Description
Hi,
I'm seeing reports of this error from our app:
loop count exceeded guard while distributing width
I tracked it down to these line in ember-table: https://github.com/Addepar/ember-table/blob/a323756dd350b866dc1acffbf4c0da02df4b411d/addon/-private/column-tree.js#L459-L461
This lead me to the following PR: https://github.com/Addepar/ember-table/pull/530
I'm not sure I understand the issue enough to decide how to handle this error. It is normal for the error to happen sometimes, and can it be ignored, or am I using the library incorrectly and something needs to be resolved to prevent the error?
Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance!
