Here is an experimental patch; first, some numbers (hot cache best of 5 runs).
Without testing it, I can already ACK it. It looks like the 
ObviouslyRightThing(tm) to do. But I'll run some numbers too.

One thing that worries me - but that is independent of this patch - is 
that I don't think our 'grep' function works correctly (neither the 
'fixmatch()' one or the 'regexec()' one) when there are NUL characters in 
a file. Maybe I shouldn't care, but it worries me a bit.
