That could make sense, dunno. Note that the bz2 module uses a harcoded 8K value. Note that the buffer size should probably be passed to the open() call. Also, the allocation is quite peculiar: it uses an exponential buffer size, starting at a tiny value: 202 # Starts small, scales exponentially 203 self.min_readsize = 100 In short, I think the overall buffering should be rewritten :-)
