Does stdio do this already? If not, why not? How could grep reasonably
configure a good block size?
This seems to be a very specific complaint which is only of value on a
very specific system and usage case. There is no way that grep could
configure a "good block size" unless it were tailor built. Doesn't
seem to be a reasonable RFE. In my opinion.
