I guess that you are trying to implement a zero-copy I/O. The problem is that BytesIO does copy data. Example:

>>> data=b'abcdef'
>>> x=io.BytesIO(data)
>>> x.read() is  data
False

Before trying to avoid copies in the "buffered" layer, something should be done for the "raw" layer (BytesIO in this case).
