+1 IMHO on some later stage (after optimizing and testing) you should think about quickly dropping to either simple version of the editor (e.g. only folding ref) or to the plain textarea version. Also old versions of browser might benefit a lot by not using jQuery too much (IIRC Google JS engine was the first to be optimized for frameworks like jQuery and that is why it behaves better). Maybe also some hint for users might be given that their browser/machine is too slow for more advanced editor on whole page and that they might want to edit a single section...
