Kibana in Chrome doesn't degrade gracefully when there is an issue with returned data

[digitalrinaldo]

Bug

Elasticsearch version (bin/elasticsearch --version):

Version: 5.6.0, Build: 781a835/2017-09-07T03:09:58.087Z, JVM: 1.8.0_144

Plugins installed: []

None

JVM version (java -version):

java version "1.8.0_144"

OS version (uname -a if on a Unix-like system):

4.4.0-1013-aws #22-Ubuntu SMP

Description of the problem including expected versus actual behavior:

Kibana/Chrome has issues when large datasets are returned.

Steps to reproduce:

Perform a query using Kibana in chrome that returns a large amount of data. A 38Mb return is causing the issue today for me. However I have seen this problem over and over.

Do a date historgram in seconds on 180K records and chrome crashes. Was this a silly thing for the user to do yes.

Provide logs (if relevant):

There are no logs, the browser says snap something went wrong every time

Can you provide specific examples of scenarios where Kibana crashes? This likely needs to be split into multiple tickets. For instance, we already have a similar ticket for the Discover app specifically. But it sounds like there are other scenarios where you're running into trouble as well.

@Bargs - wdyt of this ticket - can we close it as we are tracking it #11457

[Bargs]

We never got any feedback so I think it's safe to close, we can reopen if need be.
