I have checked the timings for all the steps individually, and no step in the while loop takes anymore time (it remains constant). But only when getting in the while, the time keeps on increasing for every new line.

A program should be light and agile, its subroutines connected like a string of pearls. The spirit and intent of the program should be retained throughout. There should be neither too little or too much, neither needless loops nor useless variables, neither lack of structure nor overwhelming rigidity." - The Tao of Programming, 4.1 - Geoffrey James
