Hello Raul;
Your method beats mine, which was manually inserting commas in the
numeral. Your method did suggest what I consider to be one of the
hidden treasures of J:
1000#.^:_1]134125010
134 125 10
which saves the mental effort it takes to know to include the 4. Yet,
somehow counting the actual number of digits seems harder.

I'll bite; what do you consider to be 'too slow?' It does seem to be a
134MB file you are trying to process.
I thought that that file was over a gigabyte?
(4#1000)#:134125010
0 134 125 10
But I was wrong and you are correct, it's 134MB.
