I'll soon add a feature where you would be able to set how many maximum concurrent instance can be made.

@yakovmeister @akume Can you tell How to handle from memory leak problem?

I also have this issue. One solution is to bulk() in batches of 10. But how can I know the page count of the pdf to setup the loop?

I'm having the same problem and node tells me MaxListenersExceededWarning: Possible EventEmitter memory leak detected.
I would love to be able to configure a bulk batch size

[irgipaulius]

me too. I'll resort to manually chunking the bulk requests

Hello @yakovmeister, any news on this ?

For now I'm forced use the following workaround (related to #95) :

let oldBase64;
while(true){
    const { base64 } = await convert(page++, true);
    if(oldBase64 && oldBase64 === base64){
        // do something if last base64 was invalid
        break;
    }
    else {
        oldBase64 = base64;
        // do something with current base64
    }
}

Thanks
