 Regarding Leigh Purdie's comment (from 4 years ago) about `stream_get_line` being better for large files, I decided to test this in case it was optimized since then and I found out that Leigh's comment is just completely incorrect
 `fgets` actually has a small amount of better performance, but the test Leigh did was not set up to produce good results.
