Thanks for the suggestions Ben and John, I went with the following: "try to disable swapfiles for large files augroup disable_swap_large_files autocmd! "5 megs autocmd BufRead * if getfsize(expand('%:p')) > 5242880 | \ setlocal noswapfile noundofile | endif augroup END It seems that the backup option is a global one so I didn't change that one.
