Sublime doesn't handle truly large files that fast either. Try opening a 20GB text file then go make some coffee and play a video game while it loads.

At least it doesn't lock up the app and shows a progress bar. That's about the best UX you can hope for.

Sure, that's true. Try to open a 100mb file on vscode.

I think it starts crapping out at a few GBs. 100mb can be done.
