I have extended the base class Controller and work great:

ControllerExtensions class:

namespace SCAWEB.Helpers
{
    public static class ControllerExtensions
    {
        #region Json
        public static int MaxJsonLength{get;set;}

        static ControllerExtensions()
        {
            MaxJsonLength = 2147483644;
        }

        public static System.Web.Mvc.JsonResult LargeJson(this System.Web.Mvc.Controller controlador, object data)
        {
            return new System.Web.Mvc.JsonResult()
            {
                Data = data,
                MaxJsonLength = MaxJsonLength,
            };
        }
        public static System.Web.Mvc.JsonResult LargeJson(this System.Web.Mvc.Controller controlador, object data, System.Web.Mvc.JsonRequestBehavior behavior)
        {
            return new System.Web.Mvc.JsonResult()
            {
                Data = data,
                JsonRequestBehavior = behavior,
                MaxJsonLength = MaxJsonLength
            };
        }
        //TODO: You can add more overloads, the controller class has 6 overloads
        #endregion
    }
}

MyController class:

using SCAWEB.Helpers;

namespace SCAWEB.Controllers
{
    public class VentasController : Controller
    {
        public ActionResult VentasList (){
            //Todo: All the action code

            //return this.Json(myData);
            return this.LargeJson(myData);//Here I use my extensions
        }
    }
}

You can especify the max length in your code:

ControllerExtensions.MaxJsonLength = 1073741824;//1GB
