This is due to CodeMirror's flywheel implementation, which enables it to render very large files without taking a severe performance hit. There is a find addon for codemirror that addresses this problem. We'd be happy to receive a PR from any interested users incorporating this, otherwise we'll return to it ourselves after we've improved the reliability of the editor. |

I'd like to take a stab at this! |

@bookwormgirl910 Are you still working on this, or can I take it up? |
|
@christopherdumas Sorry for leaving this! I haven't had time to work on it, so yes, please feel free! |
|
Okay! I got a few projects taken away from me on the rust compiler, so I didn't want to do that to anyone else. (: |

Aw that's very nice of you, I appreciate it! |


If I use the browser's search functionality (Ctrl/Cmd+F), only those matches are found which are visible (located in the editor section that is currently visible in the browser window).
