I think your users will appreciate it as well if
you insert some newlines. Viewing multiple kilobytes
of hex all on one line isn't a pleasant experience...

lol. Yah. very much so. Especially since I'll be a user ;)
I just considered that "prettifying" it once I got the basic structure worked out.

I now display my hex in the good ol':
word word word word \n
word word word word \n

And it's handling large files just fine. (re-sizing a notebook with a lot of tabs quickly is my next performance thing, but it's not so bad ... )

So that tip was spot-on.

(I've been busy threading it, and making my file analysis work asynchronously to the rest of the gui, with an update thread, etc, so that's why my replies are lagging now..). Oh, and doing my actual work as well. Ssshh....
