What does happen?
A short, clear and concise description of what the bug is.

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\BuildTools\VC\Tools\MSVC\14.29.30037\include\functional(940): fatal error C1128: number of sections exceeded object file format
 limit: compile with /bigobj [C:\Program Files\nodejs\node_modules\duckdb\build\duckdb.vcxproj]

When installing duckdb 0.2.3 through npm on windows. (i.e. npm install -g duckdb@0.2.3)

A fix would be to add "AdditionalOptions": ["/bigobj"], in binding.gyp.

Apology for reporting a few issues on Windows at the same time. Great project, and I'd love to help making this change since it is straightforward (and I have made this change locally and it builds).

Could you send a PR please?

[tanin47]

Yes! I'll send the PR soon. I notice that this only happens some of the times as well. I'm not sure why. But I suppose it's still good to have to handle different machines.

This should be fixed.
