Ron's tests showed that my suspicion was correct: an inappropriate (in

sometimes used. Ron also provided the solution, doing as root:
sync ; echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
This isn't a "shortcut" and has nothing to do with diff itself. This is
a normal operating system function to make things work much better.
There's a reason there are caches.
