It's interesting to see how VS Code / Monaco deals with long lines like hex data without slowing down. It kinda cheats by wrapping the line even when not in line wrap mode. There's a setting editor.wrappingColumn that controls the wrap length.
However, even after setting wrappingColumn to an arbitrarily large number, VS Code greatly outperforms Atom. The click accuracy within a long line is off by several characters in my quick test, but good enough.
I was never comfortable using Atom because it would grind to a halt whenever I accidentally opened any files with long lines. VS Code just may be the first MS product that I'll use on my Mac on a daily basis. Looking forward to testing it out on a couple projects.
