[Paul White]

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better. We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to
review all reported bugs in a timely manner.

However, no Ubuntu version or flavour information has been given and as
there has been no comment on the bug report for over nine years I'm
closing this as being an invalid report.

If this is still an issue while using a currently supported release of
Ubuntu then please revert the bug status to 'New' and run the following
command in a terminal:

  apport-collect 1393596

Thank you.

Title:
  Extreme slow syntax highlighting for Windows Registry Files

Status in vim package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  If exported Windows Registry Information is opened in vim, an very
  simple, but apropriate syntax highlighting is enabled.

  However, on any longer block of ASCII hex representation (and usual
  Registry data has a lot of that trash) the text rendering gets
  extremely slow, hugging CPU and make scrolling almost impossible.

  The simple scheme of marking keys and there values should not need
  such complex parsing.
