Upload of large code (15 kb fails)

I've a pretty large application consisting of 5 modules (loaded with require) and a main.
I've enabled "Save on Send" and set "Minification" as well as "Module Minification" to "Closure Simple".

The upload kind of succeeds but the execution fails with

>Uncaught InternalError: NRF ERROR 9
 at line 1 col 7573
...bounce:50,repeat:!0})});\n");load();

Further more the saved code is garbage:

dump();
// Code saved with E.setBootCode
ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ...

require("Storage").read(".bootcde");
="\xFF\xFF\xFF\xFF\xFF\xFF\xFF\xFF....

If reduce my code size by deleting functions, everything turns back to normal.

Can this be fixed? I'm also happy with a solution where I upload the modules and the main separately.

Are you using firmware 1v98? and on Puck.js?

Which IDE are you using? The Windows Native one? The IDE should be splitting those writes into a series of function calls, but it doesn't appear to be (I guess it might be an old one, or maybe I didn't update the Windows Native IDE).

It looks like the flash write fails because of the write size being greater than 4k though - I'll fix that in the firmware (but with the right IDE it shouldn't be an issue anyway).

I'm using a Mac, WebIDE version is 0.68.6 and a Puck with the latest travis build 1v98+1.

Ahh - if you try just espruino.com/ide in the browser then it'll probably work. I'll release a Chrome App update soon and that should fix it.

However if you use one of the travis builds it should now be fixed in the firmware as well.

It works now - thank your for resolving the issue so quickly.
