I am getting the following message (first attached picture) when trying to open a dataframe view through the icon pointed by the arrow (second picture). Does anyone have any clue?

This might be a bug that we simply don’t handle notebook kernels correctly. Could you open an issue?

I can’t repro this, FWIW:

Thank you both.

I’ve been trying to narrow the cause and here it is the finding:

```julia
zeros(2^16) # it works

```

```julia
zeros(2^17) # it does not

```

Yup, I can repro that (and interestingly enough both work fine in a normal REPL session). Will investigate.
