Description
monaco-editor npm version: 0.8.1
Browser: Chrome
OS: Windows 10
We use monaco editor has viewer of big files and it works like a charm! I just would like to know if it is possible to disable web worker in that case (readonly = true). I think it is unused when editor is just a text viewer.
So thanks.

Research direction
Start by tracing how Monaco Editor initializes web workers when the editor is configured with readonly=true. Check whether the worker is still needed for a read-only text viewer, then verify that a disable-worker flag prevents its initialization without breaking normal editable editors.
