Being a user of TextMate 1.5, I don't know what issues you're referring to with "files larger than a few hundred k?" I've opened multi-megabyte XML files and dealt with them just fine. I've done regex search and replace commands, fairly complex ones, on SQL backups that are multi-megabyte without issue.

I repeat, what's the complaint?

TextMate2 is a bit rough, yes, but I don't expect better from a prerelease. As it is, it's more than enough to offer me hope that it'll be finished and that it'll be a good product.

Regex search always uses a separate Window. Call me nitpicky, but I want to see my search results highlighted while I'm typing them. Especially when it is a regex search.

Also, my Textmate regularly crashed whenever I tried to open something larger than a meg or two.
