If we start talking about projects-as-files (zip or tar.gz), or
compressed files, or some binary representation of a text file[1],
then we're back to application.
[1] At a previous job, we used pcb's resource format for data.
Converting it to a binary representation increased parsing speed
by a HUGE factor, since the binary file pre-indicated the array
and string sizes. We had a simple utility to convert between
ascii and binary as needed, but the default format was the binary
one.
