Comment (by oglekler):

 Not long ago I was updating sites with 900+ revisions for a page, and they
 were failing on safe, I set a limit to revisions that remedied the issue,
 but this failed to feel wrong even if having 900+ revisions is also
 insane, designer made wonders with Elementor by hard labour and
 perseverance (or just pure madness). I think this is a performance issue
 that needs to be addressed in this ticket or in another. I have no idea
 how the designer went through the process without complaints, possibly we
 just weren't aware.
