Re: Emacs very slow opening file

    The problem is that the buffer is put in C mode (because of the mode:C in
    the file local variables) and that the font-lock-keywords of C mode are very
    complex nowadays and they end up parsing the whole file.

That seems like a bug.  Aside from stealth fontification, Font-Lock
mode is only supposed to parse the part of the file that is relevant.

So can you tell us anything about how this result comes about?
