Message 186281 - Python tracker

I somehow doubt that the gain is worth the trouble, vectored disk I/O is not as interesting as vectored read/writes to a NIC.

Actually, a quick search returned this link:

Running the benchmark written by the Apache guys:
$ rm -f writev.out; sync; sleep 5; ./test
writev: 1s526601.
copy+write: 1s323405.

Doesn't really surprise me.

So I'm -1, since it's unlikely to yield any improvement, and will greatly complicate the code.
