Max char length of a js associative array on IE8

Question

What is the max length of an associative array on IE8?

Ex:

_EnsureJSNamespace('AAA.BBB');
AAA.BBB.Res = {
Cancel : 'Cancel',
Change : 'Change.',
....
};

I have an array that has 36000 characters, and when I trie to insert in into the console I get an error... (not relevant-> "missing : " - it is because it concatenates the array) the error only apears if I insert more than 30 000 chars, it is less, there is no problem.

Thank you!

What makes you think there is a limit on the number of key/value pairs in an object? — Frédéric Hamidi, May 06 '14 at 09:42
@Getz, nope, this question is actually about objects, not arrays. — Frédéric Hamidi, May 06 '14 at 09:44
@FrédéricHamidi an array in JS is a kind of object, isn't it? — Luuuud, May 06 '14 at 10:05
@LuudJacobs, indeed, but the opposite is not true. Objects in Javascript are not arrays. — Frédéric Hamidi, May 06 '14 at 10:05
@Getz On an array, only on IE8 I have errors, it does not load correctly... it's not duplicate. — Andrew, May 06 '14 at 10:20

It was an console limitation in IE8, not an array limitation.
