desbma added the comment:

Additional advantage of calling sendfile from shutil.copyfile: other fonctions 
in shutil module would automatically benefit from the use of senfile because 
they call copyfile directly (copy, copy2) or indirectly (copytree).

So for example, the performance of shutil.copytree should be improved for free 
for directory trees containing big files.
