Chris Anderson commented on COUCHDB-796:
----------------------------------------

+1 on repatching mochijson2

-1 on magic-string numbers

if you need super-precise bignums, you're gonna have to run a query server that 
supports them. might I suggest Erlang views?

> CouchDB uses spidermonkey which can only handle 32 bit integer values before 
> overflowing. This might surprise users of map/reduce on large datasets.
> Instead, alter mochijson2.erl to handle bignums and encode numeric values as 
> strings.
