As the asciidoc chapter files for my recently published book[1] reached 1,500 lines, I found that editors like Vim and VSCode weren't able to keep up, taking hundreds of milliseconds from keystroke to redraw. Since I was writing on a Linux machine with KDE I switched to Kate and the performance was in par with editing a small file in those other editors. The Vim mode isn't perfect but was good enough to get things done. It comes with some pretty nice plugins and is def worth giving a try. [1]: Distributed Systems with Node.js, O'Reilly
