Thank you for reporting this bug to Ubuntu.
Ubuntu 15.10 (wily) reached end-of-life on July 28, 2016.
See this document for currently supported Ubuntu releases:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases
We appreciate that this bug may be old and you might not be interested
in discussing it any more. But
I also have to mention that the larger the text file the longer the UI
locks up and drops characters which can be a very frustrating problem
for very large text files.

I've had the same problem since I first started using Gedit regularly. I
have the auto-save function set to every 1 minutes so the UI locking up
can be very irritating.
I've had this problem with Gedit on Ubuntu and Linux Mint. I've also had
this same problem with Xed, so, that implies that this
Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.
** Changed in: gedit (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Confirmed
