Komodo 5 sluggishness in OSX

Komodo is a great cross-platform IDE. But I've noticed that as file size increases, Komodo's performance slows to a crawl, becoming practically unusable once files hit 2.5k lines or so.

I opened a thread about it on ActiveState's community site (which happens to be running Drupal!). It seems this is a known issue on OSX and they're looking into it.

Yeah, I don't think this is

Yeah, I don't think this is exclusive to Komodo. Eclipse PDT and Aptana start choking at about 25k lines also.

Woops... I meant 2.5k lines.

I am not a person who is

I am not a person who is easily delighted but I have to say your work blew me away. So much ideas and relevant detaisl that you put into it made me see your point of view. Thanks for communicating your reasonable inputs.
