Should BBEdit 8.6 be able to work with large (~400 MB) files?
Yes, and it routinely does. :-)
Thanks. From your experience, should it take 20-30 minutes to
open and display such a file?
If your file has a name, make sure that its suffix maps to "(none)" or "Log
File".
Also, is there a size limit? I ask because my first attempt was
with a 2.3 GB file and that resulted in a Mac OS Error -116. My
next attempt was to use 'split -l' to break it up into smaller
chunks (around 400MB, which did not have a suffix), but I guess
just I didn't wait long enough for the file to open.
