SSD or Fusion drives dramatically improve file opening speed
over spinny HDs. On my old klunky Mac with a plain old HD, I go
make coffee while the file opens. On my new Mac with an SSD, I
take fewer coffee breaks.

Became curious – had to try that by myself...
For testing I used a 129 MB SQL-Dump on my new 3.5 GHz i7 iMac
with 32 GB RAM, Fusion Drive and Mavericks.
BBEdit:
~2 sec to open, smooth scrolling, everything's fine. Fantastic!
Could hardly believe that.
Textmate 2:
~12 sec to open, smooth scrolling, pausing when resizing the
window, syntax highlighting was fast on the first 100.000 lines
or so, but then took minutes for the rest of the file.
Textmate 1:
Almost the same as TM 2, but beach ball for many seconds when
jumping around via "Go to line"
Coda 2: ~15 sec to open, no syntax highlighting, every
scrolling showed the beach ball, unusable
PhpStorm 7.1:
"Too large" message and that's it.
Sublime Text 2:
~1,5 min to load, but then super fast and responsive incl.
syntax highlighting and minimap
Another test with ~100 K HTML Code:
BBEdit: Super fast!
Textmate: Syntax highlighting needs some time...
Sublime: ~3 sec to load, but then really fast
Coda: No syntax highlighting, lazy, sticky, no fun
Dreamweaver CS 5.5: ~18 secs to load, then a min or so beach
ball after scrolling to end of page... but then ok, even in
Code/Design split-view
