Optimizer: RangeError: Invalid string length

Elastic Stack Kibana

Hello, I'm using Kibana 5.5 together with ES 5.5.
I'm writing my custom plugin, based on the kibana-plugin generator.

It was working for a long time, but recently I cannot start kibana, because I got the following error message:

server    log   [23:36:26.503] [info][listening] Server running at https://localhost:5603

What can I do to solve this?

It looks like an OOM error. Can you try bumping max old space size? It's something we're working on but in the meantime most us set it to 8gb.
