Hi Raymond Apologies for the late reply.
> Plain text.307,832 characters. 56,458 words in its full completed state. Not really a long story in today's world. It barely qualifies as a short novel. No links, no special formatting. Just words, phrases, sentences and paragraphs. When I put it all in a single tiddler in an empty tiddlywiki (version 5.1.9), save the TW, reopen the entry, which admittedly only takes 2 - 3 seconds when it's the only tiddler in the wiki, then write "this is a test" at the top of the page, there is about a 10 second lag. That's way to much in my world when I should be well into a paragraph. Very interesting. You are working with tiddlers much larger than I use for testing; my focus for TiddlyWiki is for it to work well with relatively small chunks of text. Having said that, I'd like it to behave OK with much larger tiddlers, too. As an experiment, I copied and pasted the text of Jane Austen's "Emma", about 160,000 words. On my two year old laptop performance was fine; I could edit the tiddler without discernible lag. So, I'm afraid the situation is that what constitutes a tiddler that is too big to work with depends on your hardware... Best wishes Jeremy.
