[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #51871] loading '-ascii' format files is slow

[Rik]

Follow-up Comment #33, bug #51871 (project octave):

I finally got a test of whether Matlab processes EOL characters once per file,
or on every single line.  See comment #25 on this bug report, and comment #3
on bug #52355.

The answer is that Matlab appears to do per-line processing.  That still
doesn't *require* Octave to do character by character processing, but it does
make things harder.

@Dan: What parts of the patches attached to this report can we salvage and
still implement?
