What kind of scenario are you thinking of that would exhibit this slowness in a 1 GB file?
If we're talking about syntax-ppss only, regular editing operations (typing and deleting code) limited to, say, one screen should trigger only a rescan of a limited area inside such buffer.
Both when the editing happens near the beginning or near the end of the buffer. Or in the middle -- no difference.
