infinite loading with CPU spike

I'm writing a book with lots of code samples. My code doesn't highlight well with the highlighter that Marked uses so I pre-processed my book with my own syntax highlighter. So the book has a lot of HTML in it. I have it saved as a textbundle.

When I try to open my book in Marked, this is what I see (see attached image).

I've tried letting it finish for as many as 10 minutes, but it just keeps loading. The book worked fine previously when it didn't have no much HTML in it.

Thanks in advance for any help,
Andrew

   Without seeing your Markup, I would guess that you're using the
   MultiMarkdown processor and it's hanging on the amount of HTML. If
   that's the case, the easiest and most effective option would be to use
   the Discount processor (Preferences->Processor->Discount (GFM)). You
   lose some MMD features (like footnotes) though, so the other possible
   solution would be to go to Processor preferences and disable "Process
   Markdown inside of HTML" and see if that clears things up.

   i have a similar issue. though marked stays responsive. is there any way to diagnose what's causing this?

   the file of interest renders fine (except for my formatting issues) with the discount cli markdown tool.

   Hi @sulrich,

   There's no easy way for you to see what might be hanging Marked up when rendering, but if you want to share an example file that causes the issue, I can help diagnose.

   Please also include the output of Help->Report an Issue
