Large files?
Submitted by tclwarrior on Thursday, 26 July, 2007 - 06:36
How can I can edit large files on jedit 100+ MB
Is it even possible?
Whats the file size limit on jedit?

By the way I am running 4.3pre9
And I checked the help I found how I can improve the handling of jedit by
passing by -mxXXm to the command line. (propably java -mx128m ???)
I am running windows and I have no clue how to do this, I just click on
the jedit jar and it starts!

I also downloanded the JMstats plugin and it tells me that my max memory is 64 MB
The file I was trying to open was 120 MB
Does this mean that jedit need to load all the file in memory to edit it?
This doesnt feel efficient!
