note 98119 added to function.stream-copy-to-stream

As stream_copy_to_stream() seems to be quite a memory hog (at least in PHP 5.1.6 64-bit) it may be way more efficient just to copy streams with this simple PHP alternative:

<?php

    function pipe_streams($in, $out)
    {
        $size = 0;
        while (!feof($in)) $size += fwrite($out,fread($in,8192));
        return $size;
    }

?>
