I agree that sendfile() solves some of the problems, but without
having some sort of standard for it (afaik it's not accepted by
POSIX or anything, I could be wrong, haven't checked properly) I
will have a hard time telling people to use it - I will try though.
I guess they will never port their apps to HPUX or NT or ....
It didn't come out of thin air.
