This advantage decreases as object sizes approach pipe size (64k on Linux). writev reduces wakeups and syscalls on the read side as well: each write(2) syscall may trigger one or more corresponding read(2) syscalls in the reader. Attempting atomicity in the writer via writev also reduces the likelyhood of non-blocking readers failing with EAGAIN and having to call poll||select before attempting to read again. Unfortunately, this turns into a small (1-3%) slowdown for gigantic objects of a megabyte or more even with after increasing pipe size to 1MB via the F_SETPIPE_SZ fcntl(2) op. This slowdown is acceptable to me since the vast majority of objects are 64K or less for projects I've looked at. Relying on stdio buffering and fflush(3) after each response was considered for users without --buffer, but historically cat-file defaults to being compatible with non-blocking stdout and able to poll(2) after hitting EAGAIN on write(2). Using stdio on files with the O_NONBLOCK flag is (AFAIK) unspecified and likely subject to portability problems and thus avoided.
