This seems like a good idea. For comparison I remember a case for a Fiji 
plugin I wrote (NrrdReader) that when reading compressed files from 
network drives (SMB) adding a fairly small buffer (50k) could result in 
a several fold increase in read speed.

Also was curious about the ratio of bulk write speed to OME tiff write 
speed in OP (Ruben's) case.

Best,

Greg.
