MarkEdit can edit a 200,000-page text file

The developer is overly modest about the power of MarkEdit.

I have a 200,000-page TXT file that I use to test document editors and tried it with MarkEdit. It's about half a gigabyte in size.

MarkEdit opens it in just a few seconds. Scrolling is easy. Line wrap is on and resizing the window is instantaneous. Very few document editors can do so. This is wonderful.

My testing is done on an M1 Mac Mini with 16 GB RAM.

Thanks for sharing! I wasn't expecting a Markdown file huge like this 😂 and not too many Markdown apps can edit 10MB files easily.

I am closing the ticket and linking this thread to wiki as a reference, thanks.
