Some of those line-lengths are ridiculously long. Probably never meant to be used with a real editor, but only with web-site generators for creation and maintenance and implied obfuscation. Trying to redraw those lines with word-wrapping on - ugh.
Not even any backslashed line continuation characters either. I wouldn't blame mousepad for performance, but don't let that stop the fun of trying to make it work I suppose.

Yeah, this web obesity drives me crazy. But ironically having to read that HTML is my attempt to clean it and present a non-fat version of it
I have to disagree because there are some examples of text editors that can handle this kind of files pretty well. For Windows we have JujuEdit (a funny name but it's incredibly fast!), and for Linux we have something almost good: geany. But, come one, In the end of the day we're talking about the simplest thing we can have on a computer: text; just text! If rendering text isn't locked in 60 FPS I believe there's something really wrong.
Indeed!
Yeah, the performance is not spectacular, but at least the syntax highlight works

I'm trying this xi-editor because I read that it's fast. I managed to compile the GTK frontend, but I'm failing to build the backend. Can anyone help me?

That's alright! I managed to build it. The result... Of course it's not good
Gxi 0.8.0 (xi-editor frontend; the package contains a static build with everything)
http://www.mediafire.com/file/4ap1aecll ... 1.xzm/file
And here's a build of Geany 1.33.0. It's indeed the least terrible text editor among all I've tested so far:
