Description Chet CLA 2011-03-07 10:30:11 EST 
Build Identifier:  20101216-1529

Typing is slow (~700ms) when php strings are styled using syntax coloring and the file has many lines and strings (2000+ lines and 50%+ have php strings)

example of the string styling  the something text would appear blue
$string = 'something';

if the file is large enough and there are many strings typing anywhere in the php section of the file is very slow.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create large php file
2.make most of the file have lines with constant strings ie 'constant string'
3.try typing

If the string syntax coloring is disabled tying returns to normal speed.

My version is: "
Eclipse for PHP Developers

Version: Helios Service Release 1
Build id: 20100917-0705 "


now my php (.inc) file is about ~9000 lines (and after i finish it will be ~10000 or more), and typing was slow but acceptable when it was ~6000 lines, but now i can't work with this file because of 1 character/second...

Now i open it with notepad++ ...

in general i create files with ~2000-5000 lines  
hope this will de fixed soon, i need it for my future big projects
