Sönke Ludwig 7c2fd87308 Increase I/O buffer size.
Uses a buffer size that is more reasonable for modern transfer speeds, while still providing enough granularity for cancellation. This heavily reduces the computational overhead on SSD drives.

EventCore

This is a high-performance native event loop abstraction for D, focused on asynchronous I/O and GUI message integration. The API is callback (delegate) based. For a higher level fiber based abstraction, take a look at vibe.d.

The API documentation is part of vibe.d:
