Thanks!  I changed the behaviour to the recommended option (limited
highlighting) and it's working smoothly now.

However, I've noticed a different issue.  When I set it to "ask each time",
it doesn't ask me.  What are the units for largeBufferSize and
longLineLimit?  Maybe I set those values incorrectly.  I'm using the
per-user properties file.

Cheers,
John
