-*** Editing files with very long lines is slow.
-
-For example, simply moving through a file that contains hundreds of
-thousands of characters per line is slow, and consumes a lot of CPU.
-This is a known limitation of Emacs with no solution at this time.

I wish this were true, but AFAIK the problem is still very much present. We deal with it a bit better, but that doesn't mean the problem is gone. In my tests, editing the end of a 1MB single-line JSON file is still basically not an option, for example.


Please try the feature branch, and you'll see the problem is gone.
