Re:Re: Puzzled at storeAppend. :-(

You are correct.

A writer (one calling storeAppend()) can by calling storeBuffer()
tell the store layer to internally buffer all data, delay sending it
to the store clients until storeBufferFlush() is called. This is to
avoid having store clients being invoked on small fragments of data
when it is known more will be added immediately.
