There are better ways to handle that than "refuse to load". One of the editors I routinely use will open the file in read-only mode if it detects editing would slow it down. And then you may (knowingly) force it to go into edit mode.
But in the GTK world, someone, somewhere knows better. You're just presented the solution and expected to deal with it.

Text editors may or may not pull that off correctly, as it's not what they were supposed to do in the first place
