 Why wikipedia of all places, causes the JS interpreter to use more stack
 than any other website I've visited with the security slider set to
 "YOLO", I have no idea.  8 MiB is totally overkill to be honest, but
 that's a typical value on modern systems, and the rlimits() are mostly
 there to prevent runaway resource consumption.
