I've been using vix pretty much exclusively, and I have not had any
of the problems you mentioned.  I try not to use it for very large 
bodies of text, but that's mainly because my ramdisk tends to throw up
if it gets filled up to it's limit (with programs, text files,
whatever.)  Also, saving the stuff every page or so is probably a good
idea.  You could try getting the source and recompiling.
