I'm editing a JSON formatted text file in Mac OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.2) on a 2.3 GHz Intel Core i7 with 8 GB of RAM.
The file is approx. 3 MB large so it's not very big. Anyhow this is making both TextEdit and Coda 2 to use 100% CPU. I really do not understand what is causing this behavior.
File in question: download link
Are there really, really long lines in that text? Could be the cause. – Desmond Hume – 2013-02-26T14:55:19.503
No not at all, this is very interesting, I just tried open the file with TextWrangler and the same issue, 100%... maybe I should upload the file and you can have a look at it... – Peter Warbo – 2013-02-26T15:08:39.497
Okay, go ahead. – Desmond Hume – 2013-02-26T15:17:37.393
