This is simply bug#13675.

It's a bit disingenuous on the part of that person to compare Emacs
with another editor _solely_ where there's a known inefficiency in
Emacs, and pretend that this is somehow representative of the general
differences in performance between these two editors.  After all, how
frequently do you need to edit files with lines in excess of 11K
characters?
