Description

For example the issue solved by https://github.com/astropy/astropy/pull/10306.

See also https://github.com/astropy/astropy-notebooks/tree/master/io/ascii. I think that at least some of those made it into the benchmarks but not sure.

Use astropy PR #10306 as context for the wide-file case, then add coverage for files with thousands of columns and verify that the benchmark records the intended performance scenario.
