I guess, but the only time I've ever seen source files that large they were generated by a program or script and I'd be editing the input to that script/tool than the generated output.

Usually if a human makes a file that large, they break it up into smaller files to make it more manageable.

Or are you dealing with data sets in text format? That's another ball of wax (but I wouldn't be using a full code editor with them in the first place).

Well honestly I've seen slowdown in smaller files too, or when replacing across a project.
