run appears to be stuck (due to buffer limit?)

[itingliu]

let result = try await Subprocess.run(
    .path("/bin/cat"),
    arguments: ["path/to/some/large/text/file.txt]
)

This looks like it is stuck and never returns. It is because the file content exceeds the default limit, and cat is waiting to write more to the output buffer.

For this one we decided to just remove the default buffer size limit, but still allow you to set one if you choose to.

That doesn't sound like the right fix. If something blows past the 'maximum bytes collect' limit, you should throw an error (potentially giving the user what we have so far).

Just raising the buffer won't help, try cat /dev/zero

Update: we decided to throw an error instead of raising the limit. This is the same default behavior with AsyncBufferSequence.LineSequence
