TBufferedFileStream is a TFileStream descendant which implements a buffered file stream. It provides a buffer with multiple pages used for random read / write access in the file stream.
By default, It uses a fixed-size buffer consisting of 8 pages with a 4,096 bytes per page. Both page count and page size configurable using methods in the class. The buffer is automatically maintained when the stream size or position is changed, and when reading or writing content to/from the stream.
Pages which have been modified in the buffer are written to the file stream as needed, when the Flush method is called, and when the class instance is freed.
