I'm having myriad problems with gedit and large text files. OK 81MB
isn't really that large, it should be able to handle that without this
much difficulty.

First, it takes a long time to open, more than a minute, and this is
on an SSD. Next, it's doing some processing for a really long time
after it loads the document, about 5-6 minutes, while the process
consumes 100% CPU and the fans start running on high like I'm blowing
my hair dry rather than reading a document.

But the actual problem is, at some point I click out of gedit, then
back into gedit, and somehow the white background becomes black. So
it's a sea of black text on a black background and thus totally
useless.

Can anyone else reproduce this?

I don't think there's anything magical about it being 81M. I don't
have this problem though with smaller files in the 1MB or less range.
I just don't know at what threshold it becomes a problem.
