splice-0.3.2: src/Network/Socket/Splice.hs

{- |
  This library implements most efficient socket to socket data transfer loops
  for proxy servers on each operating system.
               
  On GNU\/Linux, it uses and exposes the zero-copy @splice()@ system call:
  <http://kerneltrap.org/node/6505>.

  On other operating systems, it currently falls back to a portable Haskell
  implementation – which first allocates a constant-sized memory buffer in user
  address, then enters an inner loop which uses 'System.IO.hGetBufSome'
  and 'System.IO.hPutBuf' on this user-space buffer. This avoids tony of tiny
  allocations as might otherwise be caused by 'Network.Socket.ByteString.recv'
  and 'Network.Socket.ByteString.sendAll' from the @bytestring@ package.
