Note that since the 0.5 release of CSV.jl (announced [here](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/ann-new-csv-jl-0-5-release/23848/16)), many of the previous performance issues have been resolved (and in some cases, CSV.jl is faster than any other language library). Multi-threading support in Base will be released with 1.3, and I’m planning on working on supporting that in CSV.jl as well.
