Description
Hi @thheller - thanks for your work on the Inspect feature. It is beautiful <3
Steps to Reproduce
- (tap> my-large-vector-of-maps-and-things) ;; ~6000 entities
- Inspect via shadow-cljs inspector
- Click on View as EDN
- Gets Stuck in "Loading..." state on the viewer
- Click on View as Browse and it loads the data again.
Potentially useful debugging data:
I see this error consistently in the console
Further Info:
- View as EDN works fine with smaller vectors with maps in them, etc.
Please let me know if I can provide any further info or help with tracking this down!

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue in the shadow-cljs inspector with a vector of roughly 6000 entities, then inspect the console error shown in the report. Compare the View as EDN and View as Browse paths; done means the EDN viewer finishes loading the large structure instead of remaining stuck on "Loading...".
