@sytse (and @holman, now!)

As of the latest Gitlab (8.8.1), my "this breaks Gitlab" commit of the Linux Kernel sources (https://gitlab.com/nrclark/dummy_project/commit/81ebdea5df2f...) still breaks Gitlab.

When I first submitted this as a bug in December, the act of clicking on the commit would cause a Gitlab worker crash and the UI would either hang or return a 503 error. Five releases later, my sample commit still takes 10-20 seconds to load. Once it does load, it grinds my browser to a painful javascript standstill, and I have to close the tab.

Can we get some smarter diff handling on the roadmap? Please? There was a fix deployed a couple of releases ago, but the behavior is still pretty broken. :(
