In Java, the maximum size of a function is 65535 bytes.
Is there any specified limits in ECMAScript?
What about known limitations in browsers?

There are no defined limits to the maximum size of a FunctionBody in the ECMAScript specification, nor are there any ― as far as I’m aware ― documented limitations on the maximum sizes of function declarations in browsers.
Many browsers do have size limits on string lengths, for instance 512MB in Chrome, so any function created with the
Functionconstructor could certainly not be larger than this limit, and it’s possible the same or a similar limit applies to functions in parsed code too.
