But to be fair, I was testing on Windows Subsystem for Linux, which may be slower ...

If you have any other ideas how to trace this delay, let me know and I will try to test them :)

Well, it's not the same as just opening and closing a file. But for
comparison here's the same on my machine:

$ touch foo
$ time for i in {1..1000}; do cat foo; done

real    0m0,839s
user    0m0,594s
sys     0m0,304s
