Is that actually true? I have not done any work on Windows in a while, but
I recall that file primitives on Windows were quite efficient. They work
differently because they operate at the level of direct file handles rather
than stdio streams, but this may be faster in many cases. So unless you
have measurable evidence that the Windows IO is slower, don't assume it
to be true.
