Thats what this issue is for.

To be clear Scintilla does keep a "healthy" amount of memory allocated, but it decreases as you add characters to it until its full then reallocates, and if you do a big copy and paste you can exceed ANY pre-allocation, so there is no point of trying to guess, you always have to handle allocation failure.
