Andreas Madsen 41173de77b benchmark: change the execution order
This changes the execution order from "iter, file, binary" to "file,
iter, binary". This means the csv no longer has to buffered completely.

This also has the added effect that stopping compare.js early or
interfering with performance only affects a single benchmark, instead of
all of them.
