slow update for CurrentLine in big file

I am using essential edit to show progress of the processed lines in the big file. File is very big. About 500,000 lines, we have file up to 100MB


The objective is to show which line is currently being processed
I use: edit.CurrentLine to set the editor to the line being processed
And then: edit.Goto to position this line at the top

Line= object.lineProcessing
edit.CurrentLine =line
edit.Goto(line, 4)

I also use highlighting
edit.SetBackColor( line, true, colorFormat)

It starts up ok, but after a while gets very slow. It looks line edit using absolute position and every time stats from line 1 to get down to the current line.

What other methods can I use to quickly position display on the line being processed?

Tnank you
