ModBuddy problem with large files?

I'm trying to play with AssignStartingPlots.lua, as previously discussed, and having a problem. All 10,000 lines of the file are loaded, and any time I try to insert text (by typing) into the file, it freezes, shows "not responding", inserts the first character I typed, freezes and shows "not responding" again, adds the second character, freezes again, and then starts the cursor blinking again, forgetting the other characters I tried to type. This is, as you might imagine, pretty unworkable.

This hasn't happened with any other file I've tried to edit (although no other was so large). No other file of any substantial size is open, and neither my RAM nor CPU usage is maxing out, or even very near.

Can anyone else replicate this, and does anyone have any suggestions to alleviate the problem?

PS: Who, other than me, would really like to see an Eclipse plugin (or RCP product) as well as ModBuddy?
 
Got the same issue,

currently i edit in eclipse and insert the whole text when done into modbuddy.
It lags like hell with big lua files
Nice to know it's not just me. I'll edit in Jed, probably, unless there's a decent generic Lua module for Eclipse...
