New submission from Inada Naoki <[email protected]>:
__iter__ method of BZ2File, GzipFile, and LZMAFile is IOBase.__iter__. It calls
`readline()` for each line.
Since `readline()` is defined as Python function, it is slower than C iterator.
Adding custom __iter__ method that delegates to underlying buffer __iter__
makes `for line in file` 2x faster.
def __iter__(self):
self._check_can_read()
return self._buffer.__iter__()
