[Github-comments] [geany/geany] Geany Locking up when typing or copying of text (#1540)

[hdaz000700]

Hi Elextr, 

The file opens fine within both Linux and Windows from both Geany and Scite.

Within Windows its not until I start doing anything like entering text things lock up with the LF down the side maybe I have been too impatient to see if it ever unlocks from this position but as far as I recall I have left it in this state for quite some time and nothing has unlocked, also nothing else on the laptop shows any signs of swapping locking up.

Do you really consider 250 MB - 300 MB as a ridiculously large file for 2017? I agree its a little larger than your average but the convenience I get keeping it as one file outweighs the pain it would be to maintain multiple files.

At this moment in time I have invested too much time into Geany to switch.. :-o I use vi / vim / gvim all day long its not the same.... my mind is set to work in a totally different work flow... shudders... 

I honestly cant recall if I tested this on windows or linux but I have tested the size of the file just in case there were going to be issues down the road, about a year a go and things worked well then with over 600 MB of file... << older version of Geany probably version 1.25 as its still in my windows download folder date stamp 08/09/2015 so maybe a little over a year ago >> 

Regards
Darren
