Ruby sendfile(2) Interface
This module allows Ruby programs to access their OS’s native
sendfile(2)
system call from any IO object. Your kernel must
export a recognized signature for the sendfile(2)
system call
to use this module. Currently, that includes Linux, Solaris
and FreeBSD.
Installation
Download and install the latest package from the rubyforge.org RubyGems repository.
$ sudo gem install sendfileIf the tests all pass, you’re ready to start using sendfile.
