ST2 and ST3 - slow and crash on long comments in Groovy

#1

Clean install of Sublime Text 2 and Sublime Text 3, sluggish to open Foo.groovy:

class Foo implements Bar { // abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzabcdef
}

If (in another text editor), that comment is extended by a few more characters, then trying to open the file in Sublime Text will crash the application.

The workaround is to move the comment to a different line, but it’s unclear to me why Sublime Text is having a hard time with this syntax.

Sublime Text does not have this problem if the file is Foo.java.
