My case was also a sqldump, actually. I forget what I eventually did. I think it had to do with hitting Ctrl-C to stop the entire file from loading up front, and only load the page I was looking at.
In retrospect, I do remember also messing around with disabling syntax highlighting and splitting the file up into more manageable chunks that I loaded into separate buffers.
For my purposes, I was trying to delete certain portions of the dump - so vim was the perfect tool to do something like "delete everything from line 850 to the next time this regex is matched", with a minimum of scrolling around and rendering things unnecessarily. iirc, Sublime just locked up and refused to scroll.
I wonder if I could have used Vintage to do what I wanted in Sublime?
