I see the buffer is fontified correctly. Does it parse the whole buffer?
We have different levels of parsing. At the bottom we have
`syntax-ppss` (whose workhorse, implemented in C, is
`parse-partial-sexp`) which only counts parentheses and looks for
comment and string markers. In the above case, `syntax-ppss` indeed
parses the whole buffer, but given its limited scope this parsing is
usually fast (it can be slow in some cases, because `parse-partial-sexp`
is supplemented by `syntax-propertize-function` to handle the "unusual"
cases of "strings/comments" (a typical example would be here-documents
in shell scripts) and this is all implemented in Elisp using regexp
searches).
After this parsing is done, font-lock looks at the few lines actually
displayed using its Elisp/regexps rules to apply the actual highlighting.
This may look at more parts of the buffer, tho, depending on the actual
font-lock rules.
