Hi,

I have several yaml files with ssh keys inside them. As of 2:7.4.000-1,
vim takes, depending on the size of the key, ages to load them:

$ {echo; echo; }|ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -f id_foo
Generating public/private rsa key pair.
ssh_askpass: exec(/usr/bin/ssh-askpass): No such file or directory
ssh_askpass: exec(/usr/bin/ssh-askpass): No such file or directory
Your identification has been saved in id_foo.
Your public key has been saved in id_foo.pub.
The key fingerprint is:
92:58:f4:6b:d4:64:cb:08:02:41:c0:36:5d:f0:a9:38 yath at moniac
The key's randomart image is:
+--[ RSA 4096]----+
|oo=++.o   o      |
| + ..o.o * .     |
|. .  o. + +      |
|  . .o o .       |
| E .. o S        |
|  .    o         |
|                 |
|                 |
|                 |
+-----------------+
$ cp id_foo.pub id_foo.yaml
$ vim -u NORC -U NORC --cmd 'filetype plugin indent on' -N id_foo.yaml

:syn on => works as expected

However, when "- " is prepended to the ssh key:
$ echo "- $(cat id_foo.pub)" > id_foo.yaml                            
$ vim -u NORC -U NORC --cmd 'filetype plugin indent on' -N id_foo.yaml

:syn on => vim hangs

You can reproduce this even interactively; vim ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub, :set
syn=yaml, :syn on, then prepend "- "; it will start hanging as soon as
you type the space.

Sebastian
