Notebooks really aren't the best method of viewing large files. Two methods you could employ are
Save the file to dbfs and then use databricks CLI to download the file
Use the web terminal
In the web terminal option you can do something like "cat my_large_file.txt | less" and then you can scroll through the entire content of the file.
