"Is this a known issue" means:
is everybody else having the same performance with the latest version of
Octave when using the load function with big (>= 30 Mb in size) text files
composed of one integer per row?

"I cannot save the file in binary format because of incompatibility with the
C++ program that generates the text file)" means:

I have a batch process that at some point invokes a program created in C++
that outputs a text file. That program will not create a binary Octave file
(for several reasons like having to use the textual output with other
applications). After this file is generated, Octave is called to do some
additional steps and produce some output. Later, the output of Octave is
picked up by other program that does additional steps

Hopefully this is more clear now.

Thanks
