Seen this problem in versions 3.09, 4.02 and 4.10. If
I have a large file with lots of diffs, once I get past
line 181K I can't seem go back to previous diffs using
either "p" or the up arrow.

    I'd love to attach the files so that you could easily
    reproduce the problem, but they're unfortunately a large
    chunk of proprietary SW. If there's any debugging you want
    me to do, please let me know.

    Well, seeing as it was reported anonymously, there really is no way to communicate.
    And with a file that large. I gotta wonder how long each line is (aka its memory footprint) times TWO (for both display windows). Other than that, I've got nothing to even guess at.
    But thanks for the heads up, I've got to presume its SOME kind of "capacity" issue but with no way to get further details this is pretty much where "solving" this ends.
