The goal is to test the idiomatic way of opening text files (the "one obvious way to do it", if you want). There is no doubt that io.open() and codecs.open() in 2.x are much slower than the io-c branch. However, nobody is expecting very good performance from io.open() and codecs.open() in 2.x either.
