That's pretty much the #1 reason why most people still stick to sublime or other text editors. Atom just can't handle large files. It's a shame really because Atom actually looks great and works well as a point and click text editor. But right now Sublime offers everything Atom offers but built on a C++ engine.
In Vim I can just open up a 21mb db dump, do some regex to delete unwanted rows, and be done after a few seconds. Its amazing how vim can handle large files. I cannot imagine doing the same in Atom.
