I'm actually curious how the emacs notebook would have handled that
file. Emacs can handle enormous files with a breeze because it is able
to load the file dynamically (though certain extensions or lines in
.emacs can negate this). I've used it to edit files that are a
gigabyte large, which crashed my best GUI editor. So if it was just an
issue of JavaScript and the browser, perhaps emacs could have fared
better.
