Michael McCandless commented on LUCENE-1121:
--------------------------------------------

OK I ran Sun JDK 1.6.0_04 on Linux:

Linux 2.6.22, single SATA drive, ext3:
  create 500 MB file... 13088 msec
  transferTo... 12796 msec
  create 500 MB file... 10727 msec
  buffer... 12291 msec
  SLOWER 4.109%

Linux 2.6.22, on 6-drive RAID 5 array, reiserfs:
  create 500 MB file... 11135 msec
  transferTo... 11068 msec
  create 500 MB file... 8599 msec
  buffer... 10708 msec
  SLOWER 3.362%

> When building a CFS file, and also when merging stored fields (and
> term vectors, with LUCENE-1120), we copy large blocks of bytes at
> once.
> We currently do this with an intermediate buffer.
> But, nio.transferTo should be somewhat faster on OS's that offer low
> level IO APIs for moving blocks of bytes between files.
