[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #52355] load 4 times slower than dlmread

[Rik]

Update of bug #52355 (project octave):

              Depends on:                         => bugs #51871

Follow-up Comment #2:

See also bug #51871.  One of the issues there is that the EOL delimiter could
theoretically change on a per-line basis between UNIX, Mac, and Windows line
endings.  If Octave only needed to support a single EOL per file, that would
help a lot.  That my be an issue in this case as well.  If someone with access
to Matlab could try loading the demonstration file EOL_tst.txt and report back
what it prints that would be useful.

For Octave, results are


 x = load ('EOL_tst.txt')
x =

   1   2   3
   4   5   6
   7   8   9
   1   2   3
   4   5   6
   7   8   9
