I suspect that the answers may be more informative of people's different conceptions of what sub-vocalization is, or different ways of measuring it, rather than of the mental processes involved in reading...
E.g. I presume that I can't sub-vocalize while counting out loud, especially counting at a fast speed. I can read, but not write, while counting, which is why I think counting impedes vocalization.
