I'm often looking at large logs. The current log I'm looking at is 350MB in size.
I hit "Ctrl-F" and try to search, but for each character typed in to the search field there is a long delay. Most likely because a search is being done. Would it be possible to add a delay before a search is done?
Not until I stop typing for a certain timeout would a search be done?
Also "Find Prev" is extremely slow. Even though the next occurrence is just 100 bytes away.
Going through logs I often need to search backwards...
Note to ST devs: TextPad (http://www.textpad.com/) opens a 17 MB text file (in my case, a JSON file) in milliseconds, it's immediate. Same for much larger files.
Sublime Text (2 or 3) takes ~6 seconds to open the same file, on the same machine.
Love Sublime Text (+ it works on OSX/Linux), but it's real slow opening large files, that is a problem. Please see what you can do :) It definitely can be done as TextPad (and others) show.
If syntax highlighting is the problem, then I'd rather have ST open a large file in milliseconds and disable highlighting (for files bigger than a certain size, could be configurable).
Has anybody found a workaround? Sometimes I look at the log files ~200Mb in size and it is a pain ( But I will not switch from ST I'll continue to eat this cactus because it is truly beatifull peace of software.
Errores
Any manipulation with file large 4mb are slow.
Undo/redo, searching and etc.it doesn't help to me.
I delete the data folder and reinstall ST2.Has anyone tried their large file searching tasks side by side in ST2 and ST3?
Does the speed-up in ST3 make this item able to be treated as addressed?
Or are their remaining problems?
Any news on how things are going in this space would be of interest to a lot of people if anyone has news to share.
Just tried with a 17MB file, ST3 build 3021 takes roughly the same time to open it as ST2.
I don't see any speed up in ST3.
