Summary: 3.1pre1 too slow loading html and xml files

Details: jEdit 3.1pre1, W2K, JDK 1.3;

Loading files between 10K-15K in html or xml modes causes the screen to
freeze for up to several minutes.  This does not occur with text or C++
files of similar or substantially greater length, nor does it occur with
very short html/xml files.  I have not tested this behavior rigorously, but
it looks like the folding routines are being applied to a file when it is
loaded or first viewed.  Perhaps this is creating a bottleneck for the GUI
when the active file has a large number of brackets to be parsed.  After
the initial load of the offending file, activation occurs normally.  

I don't see a user option to toggle the folding mode.  That would be useful
for testing development versions as well as avoiding any performance
tradeoffs that folding might entail in a release version.
