[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STDCXX-7?page=all ]
Martin Sebor resolved STDCXX-7.
-------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Running the program after applying the referenced patch shows just a single
call to write(1):
$ truss -t write ./t
abcdef
write(3, " a b c d e f\n", 7) = 7
> std::operator<<(ostream&, const char*) inefficient for unbuffered file I/O

> Project: C++ Standard Library
> Issue Type: Bug

> operator<<(ostream&, const char*) is inefficient when the stream argument is
> an unbuffered fstream object: it causes a call to write() for each character
> (ditto for the wide character versions). This affects all platforms. Here's a
> test case with HP aCC:
> $ cat t.cpp && nice gmake SRCS=t.cpp && truss -o truss.out ./t && grep write
> truss.out
> #include <fstream>
> int main ()
> {
> std::ofstream f ("/dev/tty");
> f.rdbuf ()->pubsetbuf (0, 0);
> f << "abcdef\n";
> }
