If you have similar record lists to append to a file, reusing some internal slices saves memory and seems to significantly improve the performances.
On my computer:
The only strange thing is that reusing buffers takes less memory with deflate than without compression (but it is slower, which is consistent).
Do you think that it would interesting to add a such option?
