William Tisäter added the comment: That makes sense.
I proceeded and updated `Lib/gzip.py` to use `io.DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE` instead. This will change the existing behaviour in two ways: * Start using 1024 * 8 as buffer size instead of 1024. * Add one more kwarg (`buffer_size`) to `GzipFile.__init__()`. Ps. This is my first patch, tell me if I'm missing something. ---------- Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file35074/20962_default-buffer-size.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue20962> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
