Text Edit Attacks!
« on: July 08, 2010, 09:50:01 PM »
Text Edit viciously attacked my computer trying to eat all ram it could get after I opened a 32mb text file:

Any of you guys want the text file? I made it.

At least TextEdit is far better than SimpleText.

I can't think of any programs that could manage to display a 32 MB text file without lagging or anything.

32 MB?  Were you trying to open War and Peace?

Nope, anyways it's not the size that caused TextEdit to crash. It's the data.
I opened a 600mb text file and it worked perfectly, literally no lag.
