I don't think something's changed significantly in this area since Emacs 24.1, where bidirectional display slowed such long lines some more. I should explain that I configured Emacs to visit that file in Rmail mode. Try it that way. I tried visiting it in 24.3.50.1 from May 1 2013. Scrolling the file in Rmail mode is much faster in that version than in the current version. So is C-n. With find-file-literally it is almost instantaneous in both 24.3.50.1 and the current version. -- Dr Richard Stallman President, Free Software Foundation 51 Franklin St Boston MA 02110 USA www.fsf.org www.gnu.org Skype: No way!
