A new major release of open source text editor GNU nano is here. GNU nano 3.0 reads files 70% faster and brings several other features.

I wouldn't normally consider a new version of a text editor really newsworthy but a 70% read speed increase is interesting to investigate even if only for an example of how not to do things from the prior versions.
