Oh, well.  Then it seems that I've simply never noticed this before,
perhaps because Emacs couldn't handle such long lines.  Feel free to
close this then, if this is intended/known.

Thanks!  I've asked because It's important to me that Emacs is
responsive if I open a log file with really long lines. Truncated lines
make such logs much easier to read, as I can compare lines above and
below the very long one, without scrolling.
