Here is my solution of the same kind ;)

If I have such a huge one line xml/html document I use the "Filter  
through Command'

Command: cat myhugefile.xml | perl -pe 's/<\/(.*?)>/<\/$1>\n/g'
Input: None
Output: Create New Document

By doing so I can 'handle' html files with a size of some MegaBytes  
with TM.

One could fine-tune it to insert a \n after let's say 4 closing tags.

Or one could also add s/<br>/<br>\n/g or something like that.

If I want to sustain the original structure I use:

Command: cat myhugefile.xml | perl -pe 's/<\/(.*?)>/<\/$1>§§\n/g'
Input: None
Output: Create New Document

in order to distinguish between a 'original' line break and 'my  
temporary' line break.
Thus I can delete all §§\n after my editing easily by using perl.

I know maybe you did it but only in case you didn't: UNCHECK!! ->  
Check Spelling As You Type

I don't know whether it would increase the speed of TM in such a case  
if it would be possible to switch off the undo buffer/function?
