anjuta crashes when trying to open a 2.8 GB text file

3) What I expected to happen is when I try to open a 2.8GB text file in Anjuta it opens successfully.

4) What happened instead is that Anjuta just crashes when I try to open the text file.

I think you just made my day when I saw this many "X crashes when opening a 2.8 GB text file" reports.

I can't say I'm too surprised most editors do this.Many languages have hard-coded variable size limits, and one ones that don't have virtual limits, which can be anything from the smallest RAM chip to the total RAM & swap space.

I am no longer troubleshooting this bug and it is considered closed.

Quick follow-up, I marked this as Invalid because I was a little salty about the same thing in GEdit https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gedit/+bug/620764 and the response of Won't Fix. Also, had the same thing happen in KWrite https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdebase/+bug/620789 I understand the gravity of this problem but frankly I do not use Anjuta and I am not motivated enough to pursue it any further.
