--- Comment #5 from Jakub Jelinek <jakub at redhat dot com> --- Comment on attachment 15612 --> https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=15612 Proposed patch Thanks, will try tomorrow. Just some nits: 1) @command{uuencode} program's @code{-m} option I think base64 program from coreutils is more common than uuencode from sharutils, so either mention just that, or both. For no line wrapping base64 has -w 0 option. 2) I don't know how FRAG_APPEND_1_CHAR is expensive compared to say appending more characters at a time; if appending more at a time would be cheaper, with base64 one can cheaply check for the length of the addition (at least number of non-["=] characters divided by 4 times 3); but if it is inexpensive, just ignore Guess the most important thing will be how fast will be the parsing of it (and encoding on the gcc side). Just running coreutils base64 on 261M file took around 1s and base64 -d of that too. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
