Description

As reported in #3799, parsing long strings that don't contain blocks cause significantly increased memory usage.

As ~100% of posts published prior to the release of WordPresss 5.0 fit this description, it's worth adding a special case to bail early, before even trying to parse the unparseable.

How Has This Been Tested?

Creating a post in the classic editor with this sample data, viewing the post, and observing memory usage under different conditions:

With Gutenberg disabled: 4.5MB, ~0.1s
With Gutenberg master enabled: 46.1MB, ~0.3s
With this PR enabled: 4.6MB, ~0.1s
