Flame away, but...

If you're complaining about file I/O and you're using format, stop using
format.

format is a wonderful thing, *BUT* it's is *WAY* too bloated for fast I/O.

write your code with format, then write the corresponding print/write
statements to produce what format would produce.

$$$ to doughnuts, the I/O isn't slow; format is.
