Source: apt Version: 0.7.25.3 Severity: wishlist While reading GLib's NEWS file, I noticed that GIO uses the splice() system call since 2.23.4 to copy files in order to avoid copies in memory. It might make sense to do the same for apt-pkg's CopyFile(), as it is faster than the current approach and just cooler. -- Julian Andres Klode - Debian Developer, Ubuntu Member
