Are you reading the text by lines? In Bugzilla there is a
byLineFast:

Nope, I'm feeding it to csvReader which uses an input range of
characters. Come to think of it..
Well this is embarassing, I've been sloppy with my profiling :).
It appears the time is actually spent converting strings to
doubles, done by csvReader to read a row into my Record struct.
No way to speed that up I suppose. Still I find it surprising
that parsing doubles is so slow.
