One point here is that if the parsing began at the current cursor location 
and wrapped round the bottom of the file, people would be a lot more tolerant 
of slow parsing. As long as the line you are working on has any errors and 
warnings highlighted, you don't mind as much that it is still parsing the 
off-screen parts of the file.

The "what size file is reasonable" question is a tough one. I currently have 
the misfortune to be working on a project where a previous "senior" coder 
thought that an ideal java project  should have as few classes as possible. 
(I seriously believe he would have put the entire app into one static method 
if possible.)

I suppose it would be useful if the parser were configurable in such a way 
that you could specify it should perform different levels of parsing for 
files of different lengths. (I.e. "Files over x lines, enable syntax 
checking, disable flow analysis, etc");
