I accidentally parsed large GIF file (http://i.imgur.com/flMMU.gif) and this caused StackOverflowError in conversion from JSoup to Clojure data structures in implementation of AsClojure protocol in crouton/html.clj

I concede that this is not usual case and rarely happens in practice but
HTML might be specifically constructed to exploit this error or
there could be incorrect content type detection. And SOE is serious in that it is not recommended to recover from it (as well as from OutOfMemoryError).

It would be nice to limit conversion to some reasonable depth to avoid this exception.

Tried to pull down 0.1.1 using leiningen and start using parse-string. It said it couldn't find parse-string, though, is that not available until a later version?
