Re: stream_set_write_buffer() does not work

I am aware of this issue, however, reverting leaves us at the mercy of problems on solaris. I do plan to implement a write buffer, however, introducing that into the 4.3.x branch is probably a bad idea at this late stage. While I don't think that stream_set_write_buffer()/set_file_buffer() having no effect is such a bad thing (most php scripts don't have any need to call this function), I am concerned about the overall performance of writes in the absence of a user-space write buffer. So I'm looking into a solution at the moment; there is no need to update the documentation at this point. --Wez.
