There shouldn't be any size limit, though opening very big files may be
a little slow and hang the interface for a while in the current
version , since the loading is done synchronously. However 2.6 MB
doesn't seem that big... I just tried a 1.3MB (the biggest I could find
in my /var/log) and it opened pretty fast without any problems.
