/* filecopy -- copy a file from here to there
|
|
*
|
|
* Usage: i = filecopy (here,there);
|
|
* int i, here, there;
|
|
*
|
|
* Filecopy performs a fast copy of the file "here" to the
|
|
* file "there". Here and there are both file descriptors of
|
|
* open files; here is open for input, and there for output.
|
|
* Filecopy returns 0 if all is OK; -1 on error.
|
|
*
|
|
* I have performed some tests for possible improvements to filecopy.
|
|
* Using a buffer size of 10240 provides about a 1.5 times speedup
|
|
* over 512 for a file of about 200,000 bytes. Of course, other
|
|
* buffer sized should also work; this is a rather arbitrary choice.
|
|
* I have also tried inserting special startup code to attempt
|
|
* to align either the input or the output file to lie on a
|
|
* physical (512-byte) block boundary prior to the big loop,
|
|
* but this presents only a small (about 5% speedup, so I've
|
|
* canned that code. The simple thing seems to be good enough.
|
|
*
|
|
* HISTORY
|
|
* 20-Nov-79 Steven Shafer (sas) at Carnegie-Mellon University
|
|
* Rewritten for VAX; same as "filcopy" on PDP-11. Bigger buffer
|
|
* size (20 physical blocks) seems to be a big win; aligning things
|
|
* on block boundaries seems to be a negligible improvement at
|
|
* considerable cost in complexity.
