That is simpler, but slower. Not nearly as slow as using unbuffered io though. Timings on my machine, reading 1e6 integers chosen randomly from the range [0,1e18):
Original code https://play.golang.org/p/grB-muK7hw 5.626974435s 155.367779ms Original poster's optimized code https://play.golang.org/p/1Aoxwwv-zo 168.638597ms 150.923225ms Michael's simpler code https://play.golang.org/p/tMyipz6sYU 954.543351ms 166.710399ms So this is about 6 times slower. My guess is this is due to the use of reflection in fmt.Fscanf. But that is just a guess; I don't really have any evidence to back it up.
