Microsoft is updating Notepad

You don't need GPU. You need proper algorithms. I'm using EditPad, it works pretty well with big files. I think there are many editors which work good enough. AFAIK Notepad++ can open large files.

I've had issues with Notepad++ and large files, particularly if the file doesn't have frequent line breaks.

Notepad has a hardcoded size limit. Above that it refuses to open the file. I think it's about 300mb.

For me, a large file is bigger than available RAM.
