Any thoughts?

A circular structure may cause it. JSON.stringify would fire another error as below:

> var msgpack = require("msgpack-lite");
> var a = {};
> a.a = a
> msgpack.encode(a)
RangeError: Maximum call stack size exceeded
> JSON.stringify(a)
TypeError: Converting circular structure to JSON

@kawanet I have checked my code and i don't see any kind of cycle reference. In order to cross validate it i used another msgpack library and i didn't get this error. I think its worth checking your code.

For anyone stumbling on this issue, I hit this error when I had a unpacker for an extended type but not a packer

Do you mean extended like an object large and deep?

I'm facing this issue as well.
