On some platforms, working directly on the input buffer is very slow due
to disabled caching. This is why we copy the input buffer into standard
(cached) memory. This is an unnecessary overhead on platforms with
cached buffers.
Let's make input buffer copying configurable. The default is still
copying, as its overhead is much lower than contingent operations on
non-cached memory. Ideally, we should improve this in future to set the
default to non-copying if we can be sure under observable circumstances
that we are working with cached buffers.
