[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #60984] Load function on Windows is significantly slower than on Linux

[John W. Eaton]

Follow-up Comment #3, bug #60984 (project octave):

There may be performance differences with opening and reading files in binary
vs. text mode but Octave's load function should always open files in binary
mode and deal with line endings explicitly.  If I remember correctly, this is
necessary because the load function may need to use tell/seek functions to
reset the file position and that only works reliably for binary streams.
