Serhiy Storchaka added the comment:

Parser reads from input file small chunks (8192 churacters) and feed FeedParser 
which pushes data into BufferedSubFile. In BufferedSubFile.push() chunks of 
incomplete data are accumulated in a buffer and repeatedly scanned for 
newlines. Every push() has linear complexity from the size of accumulated 
buffer, and total complexity is quadratic.

Here is a patch which fixes problem with parsing long lines. Feel free to add 
comments if they are needed (there is an abundance of comments in the module).
