Tailviewer displays an empty file when the first line contains lots of garbage data #273

Closed Kittyfisto closed 3 years ago

Current behaviour

Tailviewer will display an empty log file when the file being opened contains lots of data in the first line. In fact, the amount of time it takes for tailviewer to display lines with enormeous lengths grows pretty quick after a certain line length.

Expected behaviour

Tailviewer should display the log file in a timely fashion.

Steps to reproduce the problem

  1. Open the attached log file with tailviewer GarbageLineTimestamp.log

Fixed with Tailviewer v0.9.6.
