Out of Memory crash on JsonAdapter when parsing very large json array

[hannah-smudge]

Hi! I would like to request if there is a solution for an out of memory issue when parsing a very large json array.
This is the part where it crashes:

 java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Failed to allocate a 48 byte allocation with 2431568 free bytes and 2374KB until OOM, target footprint 268435456, growth limit 268435456; giving up on allocation because <1% of heap free after GC.

Appreciate your help. Thanks! Currently using the lastest moshi version 1.14.0

Or is there a better way to handle large amount of json using JsonAdapter? Thanks
