The same happens both in emacs21.2 as well as in the emacs 21.2.92 (and in the current CVS as well), so reporting again---> emacs -q [on an X-enabled display]. C-x C-f .. of around 14399 lines. M-: (scroll-up 50000). Emacs now freezes. 21.2 and 21.2.92 split the screen into two and show "loading view" before freezing. 21.3.50 shows "loading warning" before freezing. The large file in question for me, was ~/TAGS, which was symlinked to the TAGS file generated by the 'make tags' command to emacsvs. FWIW, 21.2 otherwise almost never freezes for me. However, 21.3.50 freezes a lot --example, when i am doing heavy scrolling (or using vel.el which does). However, the above is the only freeze i know how to produce reliably. (PS: I tested this on a debian testing). ==================================================== (all the tests mentioned were run today).
