fcntl.2: Actual pipe capacity may in practice be less than nominal capacity
The number of bytes that can be written to the pipe may be less (sometimes substantially less) than the nominal capacity. This was confirmed with some testing. For example, when writing 4097-byte blocks to a pipe with 65536 byte capacity, only 45066 bytes could be written (i.e., 20470 bytes less than 65536).
