Description

running the app with cordova run uses the spawn.js which eventually executre child_process.spawn. although the stdio pipes should inherit to the parent process, they somehow don't.

when the app write a lot to stdout, eg with NSLog, then eventually the nodejs buffer get full and the app blocks and gets unresponsive.

solution:

• avoid using stdio:'inherit' and pipe the stdios instead.
• or figure out why inherit doesn't work
