So I think there's definitely something wrong with syntax highlight (tokenizer). I remember compiler & parser construction lessons on my university, and the lexer & parser performance shouldn't matter of line breaks.
But in TextMate the syntax highlighter (and more) is line-based and works with regular expressions and not a precompiled lexer/parser, so, yes, the line length does matter.
