Find limit of recursion
Maximum recursion depth is memory dependent. Values in excess of 1 million are easily achieved.
my $x = 0;
recurse;
sub recurse () {
++$x;
say $x if $x %% 1_000_000;
recurse;
}
When manually terminated memory use was on the order of 4Gb:
Output:
1000000
2000000
3000000
4000000
5000000
6000000
7000000
8000000
9000000
10000000
