random pick, man ccache --max-files=N --max-size=SIZE

I would favor runtime-configurable as well

For a file with length n "bits" it is understood and expected that there will 
be O(n)
processing needed. having O(2^n) is not "expected"
if you have a loop going over channels, pixels, or another "unlimited" property
you can create very small files that require the maximum memory and processing
allowed by the OS for the process

Thats a DOS attack

ive rerun the testcase and depending on settings it either hits
OOM in av_channel_layout_custom_init() or it will timeout in

av_channel_layout_describe_bprint libavutil/channel_layout.c:627:17

The file has 33 million channels.
Now if for some reason none of the above would hit a timeout and
instead the decoder would decode 33 million channels of silence
maybe because it had a 1 byte packet and error concealment produced
a silent packet to fill the space. Still the same issue exists
only a limit on the channel number avoids this.

Surely improving all the code that is slow with millions of channels
is a good idea but even the most efficient code to produce a frame with
arbitrary # million channels in it will lead to a DOS attack opertunity
