Issue #16269 has been updated by mame (Yusuke Endoh).
Backport changed from 2.5: UNKNOWN, 2.6: UNKNOWN to 2.5: REQUIRED, 2.6: REQUIRED
A great report. I've fixed the issue. Thank you!

Bug #16269: Every 4 bytes the Integer.sqrt(n) method closes abruptly
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/16269#change-82206
* Author: stiuna (Juan Gregorio)
* Status: Closed
* Priority: Normal
* Assignee:
* Target version:
* ruby -v: 2.6.5
* Backport: 2.5: REQUIRED, 2.6: REQUIRED
----------------------------------------
If the variable `size_byte` (starting from 8) is a multiple of 4 the program fails.
But as an example let's start with 9 (which works well).
``` ruby
size_byte = 9
a = (('F' * (size_byte * 2))).to_i(16)
c = a
a *= a
b = Integer.sqrt(a)
puts "c: #{c}\nb: #{b}\nc == b:#{c == b}"
```
```
# This prints:
c: 4722366482869645213695
b: 4722366482869645213695
c == b:true
```
Which is correct, but if we change the value of the variable `size_byte` to `8` then Ruby raises an error.
The same happens with the following numbers 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, etc... The printing error is very long so I leave it at the end.
For the moment, I've solved it this way:
``` ruby
size_byte = 8
a = (('F' * (size_byte * 2))).to_i(16)
c = a
a *= a
b = (Math.sqrt(a).round) - 1
puts "c: #{c}\nb: #{b}\n c == b:#{c == b}"
```
The problem with this alternative is that I don't know if I run the risk of getting "Infinity" back, I don't want it, I need the integer value.
This bug alone creates many "invisible" problems.
