Re: file seek is slow

[Metalone]

f1_seek = f1.seek did not change the performance at all.
As it turns out each call is only
646 nanoseconds slower than 'C'.
However, that is still 80% of the time to perform a file seek,
which I would think is a relatively slow operation compared to just
making a system call.
