Hi guys, I have a Ruby file that is mostly a large array definition full of
data that spans 40,000 lines (please don't judge I inherited this file!).
It is of this form:
array = [[1,2,100],
[2,3,300],
...
[1,2,900]]
On the Windows version of GVim 8 (also saw this on 7.x too) if I try to insert
a new line i<CR> in the middle of that 40,000 line array somewhere Vim takes a
very long time to open the newline (well over a minute). If I hit CTRL-C while
I am waiting the line opens immediately. If I insert a line outside of this
array elsewhere in this same big file I see no slowness at all. Likewise if I
press the % key while over the closing bracket at the very end of the array it
takes Vim a long time (well over a minute) to jump to the corresponding opening
square bracket.
I see the problem with syntax on and off seems to make no difference/
I do not see this issue on the MacVim port of Vim.
I do not see this problem on Linux (Ubuntu) GVim even if I run Ubuntu in a
virtual Box on the same Windows machine that shows the problem with the Windows
version so I do not think it is an issue of slow hardware or anything like that.
I would love any ideas you good folks can share.
I am happy to provide any additional info as needed.
Kind regards and keep up the great work on Vim!
Kelvin
