Version 1.1.2 of package So-Long has just been released in GNU ELPA.
You can now find it in M-x list-packages RET.

So-Long describes itself as:

  ========================================================
  Say farewell to performance problems with minified code.

## Summary:

  * Introduction
  --------------
  When the lines in a file are so long that performance could suffer to an
  unacceptable degree, we say "so long" to the slow modes and options enabled
  in that buffer, and invoke something much more basic in their place.

  Many Emacs modes struggle with buffers which contain excessively long lines.
  This is commonly on account of 'minified' code (i.e. code that has been
  compacted into the smallest file size possible, which often entails removing
  newlines should they not be strictly necessary).  This can result in lines
  which are many thousands of characters long, and most programming modes
  simply aren't optimized (remotely) for this scenario, so performance can
  suffer significantly.
