Some operating systems can optimize file creation
(especially for fixed binary record type files) if the file
is pre-extended to desired size. This eliminates multiple
file extension requests and can produce less fragmented
files systems on multi-user systems.
<P>
Any tricks to indicate desired size of file during open?
