#2065 - Long digest emails may impact server performance

Identifier	#2065
Issue type	Minor issue (breaks specific functionality)
Title	Long digest emails may impact server performance
Status	Completed
Handling member	Chris Graham
Version	9.0.20
Addon	General / Uncategorised
Description	It is possible digest emails could become very long. In this case, Composr struggles to parse their Comcode. This hotfix implements a 100kb limit. Users are informed of the limit being exceeded (still given the subjects of each digest item) so may choose to change their settings to something more managable (such as more regular, or smaller, digests).

If cron fails to parse these, would that mean Composr would also fail to parse any form of comcode greater than 100k (say, a forum post)?

"fails" is the word. There's no limit as such, but it will use a lot of CPU and memory. Each header is a template instance, for example.
