> Playing around with the WebAssembly port, I noticed that pdumper, in
> creating the dump file, makes way too many syscalls: it uses
> emacs_write(), not fwrite(), so these calls translate to actual
> syscalls and context switches. On immature systems (or in special
> circumstances like a device mounted synchronously), they might
> actually cause a hardware write for each syscall, which would wear out
> flash quickly and be generally wasteful.

> Patch will be attached once this has a bug number.
