What's the best text editor for use with large files?

Solution 1:

I'm using HexFiend to work with a 60 GB text file and it works great (apparently it can handle files as large as 118 GB).

Solution 2:

I found MacVim pretty good at opening large files.

There's even a plugin to speed it up, if the file is really large.

(If you don't want to compile it yourself, you can download a DMG to install it pre-built.)
