Emacs has lots of perf problems with long lines. I bet it would load 30m x 100-char lines no problem...
Editor performance when loading a 3GB file. Most tested editors literally cannot load the file. https://github.com/jhallen/joes-sandbox/blob/master/editor-perf/readme.md …pic.twitter.com/TbVdLBdAuf

Yes, loads in approx 15 seconds. Though it loaded my test 3m x 1K lines file no problem too! - took about 10 seconds. Emacs 25.2, 2015 MBP.

This is bullshit. I open 6GB+ files with vim on a daily basis.

To be noted the test was done on a 4G machine. Vim uses ~2x the size of the file in mem. A 3GB file would run out and crash vim.

Why will you edit a 3gb file with an editor? You process it with command line utilities if need be.

Never understood why editors even tried to load all bytes.

I wonder what's the real world use case for opening a 4GB file with a text editor...

Loading seems to be taking a while.
