Perhaps I'm missing something, but I don't see any advantage to using
mmap(). As you say yourself, it's only a few k, so you might as well read()
it in to memory and be done with it. You can even use static storage
for the buffer if it's the time for allocation you're worried about.
Using mmap() might cause portability problems.
