So yes, a particularly large document is not the norm but it can happen. JavaScript CRDTs can be quite performant, see the Yjs benchmarks: https://github.com/dmonad/crdt-benchmarks

If you are interested in CRDTs, take a look at Yjs[0] by Kevin Jahns too, it has bindings for the most popular rich text editors but is also brilliant for general data syncing too. It seems to to more performant than Automerge [1]. For an example of using it for shared state take a look at SyncedStore. [2][3]. I think Yjs probably has more potential than Automerge, the community around it is incredible. They have created an Open Collective to fund development of the connected projects[4]. 0: https://github.com/yjs/yjs 1: https://github.com/dmonad/crdt-benchmarks 2: https://syncedstore.org/docs/ 3: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29483913 4: https://opencollective.com/y-collective
