Error: segfault from C stack overflow

[bhive01]

See here for my initial look at the issue:
tidyverse/dplyr#5243
I have continued to work on this all week and figured some things out. Essentially, all of the data in my example is required to reproduce the problem and so is ggtext.

You need 3 components:
RDS: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1lhz7kOTZTKT7Dt0D5bcmbwSldiOLwe6F/view?usp=sharing
RMD: https://gist.github.com/bhive01/6f68c3301dbfb75ba0063db2abbc7f64
Rscript: https://gist.github.com/bhive01/e293135e904745a129165794bd4c0032

The RDS is compressed and uncompresses to about 2 GB in RAM. It is a very large multilayered tibble with premade plots embedded. When I run the Rscript with the entire dataset and ggtext, I get:

Error: segfault from C stack overflow

This happens consistently for me (session_info's below). If you '#' out library(ggtext) it runs without issue. I've tried it with only slice 1, 2, 3, 1&2, 1&3, 2&3 and it works, but all 3 rows and it segfaults (with ggtext). In Rstudio you get the bomb, I'm using R-gui.

When I run the script without ggtext:

Could you file this with gridtext, please? It's almost certainly not a ggtext issue. ggtext just provides a thin layer on top of gridtext. https://github.com/wilkelab/gridtext/issues
