is it true that perl will be just as fast as c for reading files ?
for example will below be as fast as if it were written in c?I said this because on random posts, I see that perl is optimized to work w/ text files and it should be as fast as perl
open FILE, $file or die "bad filename: $!";
while (my $line = <FILE>) {
#do something w $line
}
