Sorry again for the delay, kept forgetting about this.

I don't think this should go in `PDBFile`.  Seems to me like it should be accessible from `DBIStream`.

It's going to do this each time someone calls the function.  Now that everything is using StreamRef and zero-copy, there is no overhead to creating the `FixedStreamArray` up front, because it's not actually parsing anything until you iterate the collection.  

So I would move this all to `DBIStream` (as mentioned earlier) and parse this at the time you call `reload`.  Since that doesn't actually parse anything, you can do it once and just store the `FixedStreamArray` inside of `DBIStream` class and return it through a trivial accessor.
