Yes, I’m also concerning that, but nobody knows without trying it
out. At least in principle, text-property-search-* and *-property-change
are C primitives and should be really fast. Also, there’s caching trick
used in Yjs described here 
https://github.com/yjs/yjs/blob/main/INTERNALS.md#item-storage <https://github.com/yjs/yjs/blob/main/INTERNALS.md#item-storage>

On the other hand the text-property/gap-array data structure in
emacs seems to save us from using double linked list, since
the total order is just reflected in the continuous buffer.

In any case I’m afraid its possible to do it for normal size buffer
but it won’t scale for really large buffers — I imagine when buffer
is large enough, the cost of even roaming around the buffer
(possibly using the position cache) to look for place to insert
will be unacceptable, because moving in gap array takes copying
cost proportional to moving distance (I might be wrong)…
But I guess let’s assume people are not going to collaborative edit
some 10MB log file.
