Óðinn above, you are doing something very wrong if you have source
files that are 400MB. Chop up your files into smaller pieces; you
mentioned log files earlier, you can have: pizza.log.1, pizza.log.2,
pizza.log.3 … And why do you need to edit these aforementioned 4GB log
files anyways? Can't you use grep to find the appropriate lines, and
if you need to go back and tweak, just use something simple like ed or
sed? Why do you require a whole new bloated text editor?
