Sometimes, using for example `MultivariatePolynomials.jl`, Pluto tries to render very large \LaTeX expressions and (almost) freezes for a while. Of course this happens only when I forget to suppress the output which I don’t want to see in the first place, but it happens from time to time. Is there a way to circumvent this, e.g. to have a threshold for the size of the \LaTeX expression below which it is rendered and written as text output above to avoid this problem? I would be happy to avoid having to close the browser tab, kill the notebook, restart it, interrupt, comment or `;` out the problematic cell and run again. I remember having similar issues in Jupyter. Or am I doing something wrong? 😬
