Description

bug

ReEditor becomes unresponsive/hangs when loading or editing large SQL content containing around 50,000 lines.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Open the editor.
  2. Load or paste SQL content containing approximately 50,000 lines.
  3. Try to edit the content, scroll through the editor, or perform normal editor actions.
  4. Observe the editor response.

Actual result:
The ReEditor becomes slow and may hang/become unresponsive while processing the large content.

Expected result:
The editor should remain responsive and provide smooth editing and scrolling even with large SQL content.

Impact:
This causes a poor user experience when working with large SQL scripts and indicates a performance/scalability issue in the editor.

Request:
Investigate and optimize ReEditor performance for large documents, particularly around the 50,000line range. Reduce UI freezes/hangs and ensure editor operations remain responsive with large SQL content.
