Thanks, this will certainly hit the issues with very long lines.

Thanks for testing, that's what I would expect with Emacs 29 and
later.

I downloaded the file (it requires to execute some Javascript from
Google Inc. to get to the real link).

The file extension is ".txt.lisp"; it contains 3 lines, and is about
950MB.  The whole content is on the second lines, the 2 other ones being
only a few char long.

Using GNU Emacs 29.2 (emacs -Q), opening it literally when asked, then
moving to the end (M->) is instantaneous for me.

Hoping this help,

Bruno

I do not think that matters in this case.  The Emacs process
had gone  dead or crazy, and the operating system said that it was
not responding and offered to 'Force Close' the process, and
so I said go ahead and do it.

Long lines may be the problem!

I am utterly dependent upon Debian concerning the version of Emacs
I use.  If and when I get 29, I'll give the file another try.

Thank you,,

How long did you wait?  Unless it's for an hour or so, this could be
just some slow operation.  Does the system page during this (do you
see the hard disk LED light more or less constantly)?  This could be
one reason for the slowness.

How many lines does this file have?  If its lines are very long, this
could be a known slowness in the display engine.

I cannot afford downloading such a huge file, sorry.  Maybe someone
else can.

Emacs 28 is no longer maintained.  But I don't think anything has
changed since then in how we handle large files.  However, if the
lines in the file are very long, you will be better off using Emacs 29
where there are special features for speeding up the display of very
long lines.

Dear Emacs bug exterminators,

My problem persists.  I very strongly believe that I have an example of a
bug in Emacs.

I have previously reported this.  I got some advice.  It did not solve my
problem.

Today I got a new, much bigger and better Chromebook, again from Lenovo.
This
one cost me $300, but it has 8gb of core and tons more disk.

On my newest Chromebook I see the following:

> free
               total        used        free      shared  buff/cache
available
Mem:         6736092     1194036     4052888       52208     1489168
5542056
Swap:              0           0           0
>

I do not understand these things at all well, but it looks to me like I now
have 4gb of free space.

So I think it is fair for me to report my real problem, again, almost
exactly
as I did before.

The 1 gb file for which I give a url below does not seem to work in Emacs.

The file enumerates the primes below 10^9, so it would be very handy to
have around.

I can find the file, literally, into an Emacs buffer.

But then I cannot move to the bottom, i.e., using M->.  In fact, in the
attempt to
move to the bottom, things go so badly that Emacs freezes, and I
have to kill Emacs
by 'extraordinary measures'.

Is this file just too big for Emacs to handle?

Please, before you reply, fetch that file, find it literally, and see if
you can move to the bottom with M->.  I'd love to know whether you can do
that.

Thanks,

Bob

I enclose now the info that I believe you like to get with a bug report.
