[Bug 1515554] [NEW] Using gedit to open a huge text file uses to much memory

 

Public bug reported:

I made a file by dumping an epk-file with hexdump and as I wanted to
open the file with gedit it worked fine in the beginning, but then gedit
seemed to run out of memory and therefore crashed, but no crash reporter
could load.
