+ When enabled, busybox will use the kernel sendfile() function
+ instead of read/write loops to copy data between file descriptors
+ (for example, cp command does this a lot).
+ If sendfile() doesn't work, copying code falls back to read/write

+ from files to sockets, but since Linux 2.6.33 it was extended
+ to work for many more file types.
