(node:6956) issue about eventemitter3 HOT 3 CLOSED

That warning comes from Node.js EventEmitter. eventemitter3 does not impose any limits.

from eventemitter3.

This library will not throw the kinds of MaxListenersExceededWarning produced when adding more than 10 listeners to instances of node's own EventEmitter.

The only reference eventemitter3 makes to the concept of a maximum number of listeners is EventEmitter::setMaxListeners which was introduced in f7398649013659105f95445ed6f22b6e842d7e73 in an attempt to facilitate the use of util.inherits. Upon inspection, one realises the method's implementation is merely return this; essentially rendering it a no-op whilst maintaining the chainable interface.

@crazyhuggins The check for a large amount of listeners within node's own EventEmitter::addListener is the most-likely source of your error. Without knowing more information, one may only make the informed guess that eventemitter3 is being circumvented (not actually used) or augmented (monkey-patched) subsequent to being required.

You might try passing --trace-warnings to node which will cause a stack trace to be displayed for such warnings. Alternatively, and if you know what you're doing, setting node's EventEmitter::defaultMaxListeners to 0 is useful for avoiding these warnings globally.
