Starts out really good, loads the text file fast and I can scroll pretty much right away. But about 30 seconds later, 100% CPU madness. It quickly recovers. Then I scroll some more and 100% CPU and scrolling stalls out. Looks like this happens only when scrolling up (backwards) rather than down. Oh yay, scrolling up is basically not usable with a document of this size apparently. So far less in GNOME Terminal is being the most cooperative but I'm really not at all familiar with it so navigation is a bit rudimentary at the moment. Funny enough, cat <doc> in GNOME Shell gets me pretty much what I see in all of these other programs, a long 100% CPU burn cycle until it's done, I guess rendering, the file in Terminal. But scrolling is fast (I set the buffer to unlimited) and it uses next to no memory which is interesting now that I'm doing this on a 500MiB debug file... -- Chris Murphy -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
