I don't agree with this. If you are working with a file that is as small as the one included seems to be easier to just load up some data structures. I understand writing efficient code is always best but for a quickie script like this I wouldn't be to concerned with the 1/100th of a ms that your going to shave off but not dumping the contents to memory.
