Nothing. I/O usually isn't CPU-bound.

You may argue that this idiom looks ugly nonetheless, but this is why 
you stow it away in some utility functions, called Textfile.iter and 
Textfile.fold (anyone round here who has not writeen these?).

So your code looks something like

let input_lines chan =
    List.rev (Textfile.fold (::) chan [])

or so, depending on how you order the arguments.

Yours, Florian.
