How fast can Linux pipes be?
[CSDN Editor's Note] The author of this article uses an example program to demonstrate the performance optimization process of reading and writing data through Linux pipes, increasing the throughput from the initial 3.5GiB/s to the final 65GiB/s. Even if it is just a small example, it involves a lot of knowledge points, including zero-copy operations, ring buffers, paging and virtual memory, synchronization overhead, etc., especially for concepts such as splicing, paging, and virtual memory address mapping in the Linux kernel Analyzed from the source level....
