MariaDB can't connect 100MB JSON file

When trying to load a JSON file produce by mongodump in the format where each row is a separate JSON document as opposed to a single array I hit an out of memory error.

I am using the following syntax;

CREATE TABLE test
ENGINE=CONNECT
table_type=JSON
file_name='test.json'
lrecl=128
option_list='level=2, PRETTY=0'
catfunc= COLUMNS;

I have experimented with lrecl sizes of up to 4096 but it made no difference and eventually crashed the database engine. Since crashing the database engine I now get a different error that I can't get rid of even with smaller files now.

Below is some configuration detail and the stack trace from the error logs;
