I tried the code with the latest pharo-spur image and vm:
from 17 seconds down to 10.5
And I tried it again with cogspurlinux 3268 and the
trunk46-spur. That needed switching to

MultiByteFileStream readOnlyFileNamed:

and ran in 8.8 sec (average of three runs). Interestingly, on Pharo
that is significantly slower, about 15 sec.

replacing that by StandardFileStream (and no decoding) reduced it to
<120 ms.
