2527 *** Adaptive read buffering of subprocess output.
2528
2529 On some systems, when emacs reads the output from a subprocess, the
2530 output data is read in very small blocks, potentially resulting in
2531 very poor performance. This behaviour can be remedied to some extent
2532 by setting the new variable process-adaptive-read-buffering to a
2533 non-nil value (the default), as it will automatically delay reading
2534 from such processes, to allowing them to produce more output before
2535 emacs tries to read it.
