The thing you need to benchmark against is the older bash version before the 'igncr' option even existed, which read every script one byte at a time regardless of mount type or line endings. With typical 'configure' scripts easily exceeding 200 kB (and some more than 2.5 MB!), this resulted in massive overhead. *That* was the performance hit that motivated this whole ordeal in the first place. I understand you are advocating for igncr being set by default, but I got the impression that everyone agreed that this would probably be a good idea, and that Eric would probably make this the default eventually.
