- perl4ever 8y agoDid it eventually finish? I just timed myself (start with an empty document to finish with a million i's) using the method I mentioned, and it took 1:01.19 for an average speed of 16KB/s.
- jannotti 8y agoIt actually finished adding the i's pretty quickly (a few seconds), it was navigation afterward that was a challenge. Probably because emacs is optimized to navigate with reasonable sized lines. A one megabyte buffer isn't a big deal, but I think a one megabyte line was. Anyway, I hit C-a, C-k and then did something else. It completed at some point, probably within a minute or something.
