Long text lines under linux
Submitted by Anonymous on Tuesday, 10 February, 2004 - 14:38
It appears that JEdit has problems when opening a file containing long lines - for example a file containing 5 lines each of 100000-500000 characters in length. Under
Windows this seems to work OK (if slowly) under Linux it seems to consume a large percentage of CPU then stop responding to user input (even after some time [>10 mins] has elapsed).

Any thoughts as to what could be causing this? I don't think this is really a bug (as it works OK under windows) but I would like help in narrowing down what could be causing this.

This was addressed during the 4.2 cycle.
 
It may well have been a 4.1 v
