About 3 years ago when ry was working on this for streams, I implemented a writev() for fs.write()s and even sent a patch, and found that -IIRC- writev()ing was more than 20% faster than simply write()ing, but there seems to be a limit in writev()s maximum allowable iovecs iocnt, if you hit it you have to break it down in several smaller writev()s with fewer iovecs and queue them properly, which is a bit of a mess. -- ( Jorge )(); -- -- Job Board: http://jobs.nodejs.org/ Posting guidelines: https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Mailing-List-Posting-Guidelines You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "nodejs" group.
