Let's take my example of an older Raspberry Pi model 1 with less than 1GB of RAM and only 4GB of SD card "disk", and process a video stream several GB in total length, from an mplayer process that will write only to a file and refuses to write to stdout, where the stream needs to be sent over the LAN to a machine with enough spinning rust to store the stream. Would temporary files work? Not really. A named pipe let mplayer write to a named file. Even if having two processes shuffling the data wasn't the most efficient, the Pi handled it quite well. -- Robert Riches spamtrap42@jacob21819.net (Yes, that is one of my email addresses.)
