What is the default stack size in Node.js?

Question

But, what is the default size? (ie how do I get to the PHP equivalent of phpinfo())

See http://www.2ality.com/2014/04/call-stack-size.html and related question http://stackoverflow.com/questions/20748061/what-is-the-default-stack-size-in-node-js. — Mihai8, Jun 01 '15 at 12:57

The simple answer is that the default stack size is 492 kBytes (32-bit) and 984 kBytes (64-bit).

As commented by soyuka try this:

$ node --v8-options | grep -B0 -A1 stack_size

or

$ node --v8-options | grep -B0 -A1 stack-size

actually, never mind, it seems to be 32/64 bit differences. Though a link would be great – vkurchatkin Dec 24 '13 at 04:26
Link would be good or any info on how to confirm this programmatically – blak3r Dec 28 '13 at 20:58

`$ node --v8-options | grep -B0 -A1 stack_size` – soyuka Feb 13 '14 at 17:08
This seems to be outdated – wprl Jan 06 '22 at 15:09
