These are too fast for stopwatch timing with less than 10^5 entries.
OS 10.2.8 caches the files so disk activity is not important on my G4 sawtooth at 375 MHz.
Perhaps someone will create the "do shell script" interface and make it on-topic.

It's probably possible to implement the two-way base 256 conversions in AppleScript. I have not used any features, like bit shifts and 64 bit integers, which are not available in AppleScript.
