[fstream]how to set buffer

[Acer]

platform: freeBSD(gcc) Win32(MinGW)
I try follows:

char cbuf[buf_size];
ifstream fin;
fin.rdbuf()->pubsetbuf(cbuf,buf_size);

but I found it do not influence the I/O times when I increased or
decreased the buf_size

char cbuf[buf_size];
ifstream fin;
fin.rdbuf()->pubsetbuf(cbuf,buf_size);

The behaviour of that is implementation defined, but I think it does
what you want on your compiler and platform. Make sure you set the
buffer before you open the file.

but I found it do not influence the I/O times when I increased or
decreased the buf_size

That implies that your I/O times are not being influenced by buffering.
