Happens to me too.

I'm having a close issue, when i call getAllUnreadMessages() for accounts with thousands of chats the page crashes

@nropelato @garciabruno @gutitrombotto when was the last time you tried to test this out? Because around the same time as you reported this issue I pushed new patches. Please retry and confirm if this issue is still happening. thanks

[gutitrombotto]

Hi @smashah. Thanks for the reply.

The issue still there!

The last patch is 51f5b I think.
This patch fix the issue in getAllContacts. But this problem is different.

[smashah]

@gutitrombotto I am unbale to replicate the issue because I don't have that many chats/groups. I have pushed some new patches that may fix the problem, please try again.

If this continues happening then one of you will need to let me test fixes on your specific sessions. To expedite this please join and ping me on discord

[gutitrombotto]

@smashah I have just tested again, with the new patches (97526) and the problem continues.
I think that puppeteer can't evalute the a large screen in the browser because of the large amount of groups.

I will join discord and ping you in the following days.

@smashah what is the discord link?

[smashah]

@gutitrombotto click the discord badge in the readme

[garciabruno]

Seems to be fixed. (Using patch 7efdb)
Thanks a lot @smashah !

Cheers
