[TxMt] TextMate hangs on large files...

[Jim Leask]

I have just discovered TextMate, and am so far very happy with it,  
but I think I just hit a glitch...

I am trying to edit a SQL load file that is about 5M, which shouldn't  
be a problem. However, some of the lines are very long, as a complete  
website contents is in a single line. I have no idea how many  
characters are  in this line, but I suspect about 2M worth.

Anyway, TextMate hangs while trying to work with this file. I can't  
do much at all. Even a simple act of scrolling hangs. TextEdit does a  
reasonably good job with the file though...

Actually, I don't think it is hanging, as it eventually responds  
(about 30 seconds later), but it is so slow that it is completely  
unusable. Is this a known problem? For me, it is weird files like  
this that we need an editor like TextMate to be able to easily handle.

Thanks...
