Sorry for the delay. The rsnapshot file is just
% wc -c /var/log/rsnapshot
433435 /var/log/rsnapshot
See attachment. The important part seems to be the very long lines in the
text file. "time zcat rsnapshot.log.gz" gave me for a local network
connection
253x50:
real 0m0.031s

258x50:

Please note the worse performance for 256x50 and larger.
I verified this for Xorg using intel graphics and for the proprietary
Nvidia graphics.
