Comment 0 for bug 1643167

Bash itself won't crash on extraordinarily input, but the little utilitarian tool crashes.
With the ulimit set in /etc/bash.bashrc, the crash info is graceful as seen below. However, it ended up crashing my computer out. (Actually it took my computer into the pitfall of swap, as I found out later. That means, it consumes too much MEMORY, not cpu time.)
The source code seems as if the spelling error candidates are O(n^2). (Although actually it is, at least.)

Possibly a denial of service attack on computer without good config on ulimit :)

~# `printf '=%.0s' {1..10000}`
