Hi,
I've attached the patch for $subject. In the following comment,
/*
* If available and useful, use posix_fallocate() (via FileAllocate())
* to extend the relation. That's often more efficient than using
* write(), as it commonly won't cause the kernel to allocate page
* cache space for the extended pages.
*
* However, we don't use FileAllocate() for small extensions, as it
* defeats delayed allocation on some filesystems. Not clear where
* that decision should be made though? For now just use a cutoff of
* 8, anything between 4 and 8 worked OK in some local testing.
s/FileAllocate()/FileFallocate()/
Regards,
