Same function, different behaviour in times

Question

Here is a recursive function for endless loop.

<html>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript">

function repeat(x){
document.write(x+" ");
repeat(x+1);
}

repeat(1);

</script>
</body>
</html>

Using the function, I can see how many recursive calls took place there before out of memory. First time, I run it on firefox.

Result -> 1 2 3 .... upto 40536

Now, I refresh the page

Result -> 1 2 3 ... upto 46046

!! Again refreshing or running on different browsers, I got different results.

How can this be possible? What is the call stack logic/limit for recursion in javascript?

La solution

Internet Explorer 7: 1,789
Firefox 3: 3,000
Chrome 1: 21,837
Opera 9.62: 10,000
Safari 3.2: 500

This are all the some of limits

and also this

Autres conseils

The JavaScript specification does not mandate any particular memory limit. Each implementation can impose whatever memory limit it wants.
