   OK.
   
   Does NetBeans scan the entire Web site for files that mention the link 
target? If so, is the site scan recursive? The deepest level of my Web site’s 
files is about 10 levels down from the root, but that’s not deep enough to 
cause a stack overflow.
   
   On the other hand, if NetBeans’ logic keeps track of files searched, the 
search results, or something else in a way that affects the stack, could a 
large number of files in the Web site cause a stack overflow?
   
   If so, that might be the issue, since my site is pretty large (65,000+ 
static HTML files). It’s impractical to try to send a copy to you, since it’s 
hundreds of megabytes.
   
   But perhaps you could **_simulate_** a large web site by using a script to 
create a site with 70,000 or so HTML files?
   
   One of the files should be the refactoring target, and another should have a 
link to the refactoring target.
   
   For the remaining files, the file content shouldn’t matter: I think they 
could just contain a <DOCTYPE>, and empty <head> and <body> elements. Let me 
know what you think.
   
   I guess I’ve been spoiled by Expression Web 4 (EW4), which uses a different 
refactoring technique. In every folder, it has a separate, hidden folder with a 
set of files that have the same name as the files in the parent folder. Each 
“hidden” file keeps a record of links to and from the file of the same name in 
the parent directory, and is continuously updated by the IDE. So refactoring 
even dozens or even hundreds of files takes only a few seconds.
   
   Unfortunately, Microsoft has stopped supporting EW4, and has removed its 
installer from their servers. Which is why I'm looking for a replacement.
