I don't think that is possible with Vim without the help of some
pre/post-processing tool, but... Vim can edit pretty large files
relatively quickly, if set up properly. Have you tried playing with
Vim's settings already?

Of course, all depends on what "large" and "quick" mean to you. And
I believe that the line length of the edited files is also an important
factor.
