Returning to the topic at hand (and I’ve commented on this a few times before over the years) Sublime’s performance with either very large files (1Gb+) or files with very long lines (10k+ chars) leaves a lot to be desired. I also experienced that selecting all ‘foo’ and typing ‘bar’ is much slower than doing a ‘search and replace’ through the menu.Ī quick ‘hi’ as I’ve been off the map for a little while.


(Maybe there already is a plugin for that, I never looked up) Is there any way to automatically disable some options like Syntax and line wrapping on big files?Īlso it would be nice to be able to open a big file but to only load a few parts of it. Loading a 2Go files would take at least 2Go of RAM in my experience. If Sublime crashed my guess is that you run out of RAM. When opening your ‘json’ Sublime will parse it, which can be long.Īlso if you have line wrapping enable it will take you even longer.Īnd saving is long because Sublime has to write a 2Go file on your disk, and that’s long. I often open big text files in Sublime (>1Go) and it handles them reasonably well.īut I usually don’t open big source files. Try editing a 2Go text file in notepad!Įdit: Most editors struggle with large file except if they have been carefully designed for them. First all editors struggle with large files.
