100% CPU usage for a few minutes when visiting large Unicode file |

Gnus/5.11 (Gnus v5.11) Emacs/22.0.51 (gnu/linux) |
I started with a rather large file (attached) that I generated with a
program; I think it contains every possible unicode character, UTF-8
encoded, in order from 0 through 0x10ffff inclusive.
I generated the file with this program for PLT scheme version 350:
(let loop ((chars-considered 0))
(when (< chars-considered #x110000)
(unless (<= #xd800 chars-considered #xdfff)
(display (integer->char chars-considered)))
(loop (+ 1 chars-considered))))
If I save the file as /tmp/golly, and then invoke emacs with emacs -Q
-nw --load bug.el (where bug.el is attached), I observe:
* Emacs uses 100% of the CPU for about two minutes. This seems
bugaceous; normally Emacs can visit a file of this size with no
perceptible delay. (I haven't tried removing the call to
"forward-page" in bug.el; I wouldn't be surprised if it is where the
time is being spent)
* I see a warning about undo info being discarded. This seems
bugaceous because I haven't edited anything, and I assumed that only
edits should put things on the undo list
* If I hit C-n C-n, Emacs again starts using 100% of the CPU, for
perhaps 5 seconds
You'll notice that I've compressed the attached file with bzip2 _and_
gzip. I can't explain it, but doing so yields vastly better
compression than using either bzip2 or gzip alone.
If emacs crashed, and you have the emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:
`bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
If you would like to further debug the crash, please read the file
/usr/local/src/emacs-cvs/etc/DEBUG for instructions.
