Pádraig Brady 55efc5f3ee cat,cp,mv,install,split: Set the minimum IO block size used to 32KiB
This is following on from this change:
[02c3dc9d 2008-03-06 cat: use larger buffer sizes ...]
which increased the IO block size used by cat by 8 times,
but also capped it at 32KiB.
* NEWS: Mention the change in behavior.
* src/system.h: Add a new io_blksize() function that
returns the max of ST_BLKSIZE or 32KiB, as this was
seen as a good value for a minimum block size to use
to get good performance while minimizing system call overhead.
* src/cat.c: Use it.
* src/copy.c: ditto
* src/split.c: ditto
