    @CCTrollz I just did a quick test on my laptop and it did the same thing at 8gb. my guess is a vim plugin is loading the file into full ram instead of just reading sections or a regression has happened in vim 8. what plugins do you use?

    @jckimble pfft, my goto is atom, but is merely scoffed at the idea of launching that file. So I just installed vim to see if it was up to the task. And it is not.

    @CCTrollz so no plugins then, guess I'm going to be looking for a memory management regression then
