Currently a static sized buffer is used for reading files. At the moment

Increase this to 4k for improved performance.
I bumped it up to 1024 initially for testing.
It always struck me as odd that Bash used such a small read of 128

simple test program seems to indicate glibc's stdio reads 4096 bytes at
one read() call.
