Some misbehaving plugin code was sending very large messages to `vim.notify()`, which would trigger an exception when calculating the max line width for rendering: ``` [...]/notify/render/default.lua:6: too many results to unpack ``` To fix this, I updated the implementation to calculate the max line width in-place. This ultimately ends up being much more efficient because it is not creating a new table with `vim.tbl_map()`. Here's some benchmark data: https://gist.github.com/flrgh/349aecd8ca35d20cf0526ec8b218657c In the large input benchmarks, the new function is ~2x faster. For small inputs (which are probably most common for `vim.notify()`), the speedup is even larger at 3-4x. Other changes: 1. I noticed the same snippet appeared in multiple render modules, so I factored it out into `notify.util.max_line_width()` and added a unit test 2. I updated the calculation to use `vim.api.nvim_strwidth()` when available (see rcarriga#247).
