I do not believe that it is a regression, so I have removed that from the
summary.
The profiling that you have done tells a story - I think that it is fairly
clear where the problem lies; not in making a spurious copy as I first thought
but rather in looking for an end of record, or some such foolishness.
I had a brief look in the library to try to understand why so much time is
spent in next_char, mem_read and memcpy and cannot immediately see what is
happening. Jerry knows the terrain better than me.
Cheers
Paul
