point every time. Let me fix my last statement:
Regardless of whether you choose to measure latency or CPU load
if you test two read sizes (st_blksize and st_blksize - 4) you
will not be able distinguish between the two read sizes due to
the influence of other factors.
I don't think I have missed any of your points. We disagree as to what
is worth spending one's time / code lines on, but if anything, you
have missed my points about kernel operation / cpu load / latency.
Which is fine by me -- I am happy with the way sndfile works today.
The fact that you have a VIO layer solves (or at least obviates) most
of the problems that I have pointed out.
Note that merely rewriting a statement to make it more vague does not
prove initial intention or ulterior insight. So no need to "fix" your
statements like that...
