Hi tjgillies; I've pushed a hack that bumps up the maximum api request size to 40MB from 10MB that should make this go away.
We really need to rework to avoid it - the request we're using gets back these huge responses during initial sync sometimes, I've seen Matrix HQ give 5MB+.
(At least I'm assuming you're seeing it during initial sync - right?)

I have this too, but it also asks if I want to trust matrix.org's certificates. I say "yes" to all these quotions, but it still does not work. This is how it goes:

10:17 <@fmlatghor> account matrix on
10:17 <@root> matrix - Logging in: Logging in
10:17 <@root> matrix - Logging in: Initial Sync
10:17 <@root> matrix - Login error: Error reading from matrix.org: response too long (10485760 bytes limit)

It's working now.

Not in my case. did you change anything? Plugin version you use?

Well the first time I tried on debian testing, this time I tried on fedora. I don't have access to the debian machine right now, but I'm on v1.0 for purple-matrix.

To summarize, this issue needs lazy-loading of the membership list implemented. Then initial request may be changed like this: #121

Any known workarounds, e.g. leaving rooms via webbrowser before logging in via purple? Would really like to use matrix via purple.
