No idea.

I'd suggest to take a good look where that too-large error message really came from. I know next to nothing about JSON processing, but I seem to recall that you have to read the entire file before you can validate and parse it. If so, it seems reasonable that there's an upper limit, and that KDevelop would need to detect when this limit is reached and handle that situation gracefully (like by falling back to using the legacy import based on the much smaller compile_commands.json file).

Compared to 100Mb ... that's a sizeable difference!
