Review comment:
       `std::ifstream` is an input iterator and not a forward iterator, so 
`std::search` does not operate on it, we could read the file chunk by chunk but 
then we would have to cover edge cases like the id appearing on the boundary, 
tried wrapping the `std::ifstream` to accommodate it for `std::search` but it 
took tens of seconds with the constant seeks, the memory-mapped solution runs 
in tens of milliseconds, also we could use the Boyer-Moore searcher
   
   I think it is best to use standard library utilities whenever possible 
instead of hand-rolling our own search implementation
