146 very large buffers. This is achieved by caching the line numbers of 151 very large buffers. This is achieved by caching the line numbers of
147 recent buffer positions, and reusing them. This cache is used only in 152 recent buffer positions, and reusing them. This cache is used only in
148 the buffers where `line-number-mode' is in effect. 153 the buffers where `line-number-mode' is in effect.
