How largish ?
Any size larger than a few meg. That is, any size that takes more than a few
milliseconds to seek to the end, I think.
We will need someone with W10 to test it and confirm it.
On W7 I have no issue at all with 250MB file
How long are the lines ?
can you try to update to latest ?
You have
less 471-1 OK
cygwin 2.1.0-1 OK
Not so. From the 'cygcheck -s -v -r' output file that was attached to my bug
report:
0 /c/ToCygwin$ egrep '^(cygwin|less)' Karl2.cygcheck.out
cygwin 2.3.1-1 OK
less 481-1 OK
sorry, reading the wrong file.
Did you look at the attached files? I tried to keep the body of the email
small, per instructions. But there is info attached.

On Cygwin 32 bit and W7-64 I see no problem with 224 Mbytes
Cannot seek to that file position (press RETURN)
in the bottom "command editing line" of the display.
No problem on LF-only files. Does happen with either mintty or
Windows-Console,
launched from either bash or cmd.exe.
Two files are attached: Karl2.cygcheck.out, which is the 'cygcheck -s -v
-r'
output,
and LessBugMoreInfo.txt, which contains background info and some
speculation.
