Sublime text works better on large files (where file sizes are a few gb) compared to VSCode.
But, you can go faster depending on your usecase:
- If you're trying to manually look through the file, use `less`. You can scroll up and down, go quickly to the top and bottom of the file, and also search the file for strings quickly
- If you already know the string in the file that you're looking for, use ripgrep
- If you're trying to do a search and replace, and you already know what the strings are, use sed. (macos' built-in sed isn't good, so get the proper gnu coreutills through homebrew, and you can access the good sed through `gsed`)
