I wanted to know how Julia compares to Python as a normal file-parser so I made this gist: https://gist.github.com/2280733

It seems that in this case, Julia is extremely slow compared to Python, probably because the LVVM stuff has to fire up first...

Any thoughts?

Edit: Submitted it on GitHub and it seems to be a genuine bug: https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/issues/661
