Check BLOB content size before trying to render it Make sure that the content returned by JGit is below the maximum size allowed for formatting/rendering with Soy. The method loader.getCachedBytes(MAX_FILE_SIZE) would return an in-memory content larger than MAX_FILE_SIZE if the the BLOB is smaller than streamFileThreshold. Parsing 100s megabytes of in-memory content using a prettyfier regex and trying to render it in HTML would result in a massive allocation of strings in the JVM heap. The overload of memory allocation may eventually result in triggering continuous 'stop-the-world' GC cycles, blocking the process for several minutes.
