I deal with lots of text as well, and this is going to be a serious problem. In short, the comments are correct that you probably won't be able to just throw 2GB of information up there on your screen. One function that a person mentoring me in Mathematica provided was this:

viewData[x_] :=
 Framed[Pane[x, {Automatic, 200}, Scrollbars -> True]]

You could then ViewData[x] where x is the information you're trying to visualize. You still won't be able to view 2GB of data all at once, but this might give you an ability to view a bit more of it for whatever reason.

There have been some discussions over at Stackoverflow on the related problem of viewing large files, if you were to export it textually, including some text editor suggestions (herehere and herehere).
