Re: [ jEdit-devel ] Super slow buffer with big files!

[Slava P. <sl...@je...>]

Hi,

I would check a few settings:

- Is soft wrap on?
- Is "more accurate syntax highlighting" on?
- What plugins do you have?

To test I've opened 100Mb+ files in jEdit, which was sort of slow, but
2Mb files should not have any slowdowns.

Has anyone found a solution to working with large ammounts of text quickly in jEdit? Oh yeah, and I did turn of all the options that slow stuff down like anti-aliasing, etc...
