Overview
What is BetterStreams?
BetterStreams - Easy asynchronous I/O, alternate data streams, and efficient stream seeking
In depth
A closer look at BetterStreams
The BetterStreams library was designed to be a collection of three classes that aid in manipulating streams. AsyncStream and BetterBufferedStream wrap existing streams to provide improve I/O performance. AsyncStream enables easy, fast asynchronous I/O, while BetterBufferedStream is similar to System.IO.BufferedStream but with more efficient seeks. Finally, the static AlternateStreams class adds the ability to manipulate NTFS alternate data streams (ADS).
