Well, I don't mean to. ":set" says this:
--------------
autoindent helplang=en scroll=11 t_Sb=Esc[4%dm
backspace=2 history=50 ttyfast t_Sf=Esc[3%dm
cscopetag hlsearch ttymouse=xterm
cscopeverbose ruler viminfo='20,"50
cscopeprg=/usr/bin/cscope
fileencoding=utf-8
fileendcodings=utf-8,latin1
formatoptions=tcql
--------------
So, do I have syntax highlighting enabled? The t_Sb and t_Sf look
suspiciously like formatting commands, but I confess I'm not conversant
on vim options.
Thanks,
Max

I created and opened a file as follows:
while true
do
echo '123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890'
done | head -2000000 > two_million_lines
vim two_million_lines
Then within vim executed:
50%

Using vim 7.1 under Cygwin and Windows XP on a 3.6 GHz Pentium with
2 GB of RAM: 9 seconds.
Using vim 7.1 under Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS release 4 on a 2.8
GHz Pentium with 500 MB RAM: 16 seconds.
