I'm seeing something strange on windows when I perform some "short" (less 
than 100 bytes) seeks while jumping from a block to another. As Loris said, 
such seeks are much slower than simply reading the data with an fread(). I'm 
not sure it has anything to do with the particular CRT I'm using. I do not 
have any results on linux or other OSes, I plan to have some tests on linux 
during the weekend.

Have a nice day
