Yep, here we go:

OK, good, you're grabbing file contents on the worker thread. How long does
this typically take? Why not show your progress display before this?

Don't do this. AppKit is not thread safe. Creating a window controller on a
secondary thread is not supported.

Never blindly assign to error pointers. Check the caller is actually interested
in receiving an error first.

Or is it this line of code that takes a long time to run? If so, what's it
doing?

Furthermore, it is not this method's job to create the UI. That should be done
in -makeWindowControllers instead.
