Does autofac have limitations on how many components can be registered?

Question

We have a large solution with 24 projects which uses autofac (v3.5.2) and largely constructor DI to construct all our services.

The solution is so large now that it seems I've reached a limit. I recently added a few more constructor DIs to an existing service and when I load and run the project I now get an OutOfMemoryException. If I remove those new DIs in that service, the project loads again.

There is no circular dependency or anything like that causing it.

So the question is, does Autofac have this type of limit? If not, what could be causing this OutOfMemoryException?

Here's the top part of the stack trace:

The full stack trace is too big to post on Stack Overflow, but you can the full stack trace here.

We do have some deep chains of dependency, but not circular. Every time we load the app the error follows a different dependency chain in the error messages. Here's one chain as an example:

RelatedEntityResolver   -> IPermissionService
RoleResolver            -> IRelatedEntityResolver
                        -> IPermissionService
UserRetriever           -> IRelatedEntityResolver
                        -> IRoleResolver
                        -> IPermissionService
UserService             -> IUserRetriever
RoleService             -> IPermissionService
                        -> IRoleResolver
                        -> IRelatedEntityResolver
                        -> IUserRetriever
                        -> IUserService
TeamFactory             -> IPermissionService
                        -> IRoleService
TeamInstanceForCompetitionCreator   -> ITeamFactory
CommandDispatcher       ->    ICommandHandler/ITeamInstanceForCompetitionCreator
CreateAgreement         -> ICommandDispatcher
