`Path.read_bytes()` is used to read a whole file. buffering /
BufferedIO is focused around making small, possibly interleaved,
read/write efficient which doesn't add value in this case.
On my Mac, running the benchmark:
```python
import pyperf
from pathlib import Path
def read_all(all_paths):
for p in all_paths:
p.read_bytes()
def read_file(path_obj):
path_obj.read_bytes()
all_rst = list(Path("Doc").glob("**/*.rst"))
all_py = list(Path(".").glob("**/*.py"))
assert all_rst, "Should have found rst files"
assert all_py, "Should have found python source files"
runner = pyperf.Runner()
runner.bench_func("read_file_small", read_file, Path("Doc/howto/clinic.rst"))
runner.bench_func("read_file_large", read_file, Path("Doc/c-api/typeobj.rst"))
```
before:
```python
.....................
read_file_small: Mean +- std dev: 6.80 us +- 0.07 us
.....................
read_file_large: Mean +- std dev: 10.8 us +- 0.2 us
````
after:
```python
.....................
read_file_small: Mean +- std dev: 5.67 us +- 0.05 us
.....................
read_file_large: Mean +- std dev: 9.77 us +- 0.52 us
```
