Hi, I observe extremely long respnse times when I try to delete a large range of lines, say ".,$d"
I suspect, the following happens: The first line of the range (n lines) is deleted, the other lines up to the end of the buffer (at least n-1) are renumbered. Then the second line is deleted, the remaining ones are renumbered, and so on. This gives n**2 complexity. Deleting the n lines first an renumbering the remaing ones only once would be much faster. Am I right?
