Re: [whatwg/streams] Add support for bulk read operation (#1003)

Sorry for the slow response.

I think as a performance-oriented API, this has a high bar to meet. We need to show that it unlocks performance gains that would be otherwise unachievable.

In some respects it is similar to BYOB readers, which by avoiding repeated buffer allocations supposedly unlock higher performance. Unfortunately, real-world performance benefit has never been shown, because no browsers have implemented BYOB readers.

I think I want to see a demonstration of real performance improvement in a real-world situation before adding this to the standard. That means we need an implementation.
