"Files open and preview instantly, even large binary ones."
Really? Can you define large and define instantly? Because the one thing Sublime Text 2 really sucks at is opening large files, in my experience.
ST3 is better than ST2 in this area, but still noticeably slower than any other "programmer" editor I use.
- lopatin 13y agoI just opened a 1 gig movie file in ST2 and it took about a minute actually, so I was wrong about that one. My original comment was from my experience opening smaller log and image files.
- georgemcbay 13y agoAh, ok. This matches my own experience then. Sublime Text 2 is very fast for normal types of operations and file opens but I find that once something gets to be 10s of megabytes log, it has some serious issues. Granted, if you have single source code files that are 10s of megabytes long then you're generally doing something wrong, but for situations where you unavoidably do have very large files, Sublime Text kind of sucks at opening them compared to just about every other programming-focused editor I've ever used. I do like the program a lot, this is one of my few complaints (the other major one being that there's no ARM/Linux version).
