Data movement within a computing environment is at the very least reduced. Data is transmitted between a file system of the computing environment and a transmission medium of that environment. The transmission includes bypassing non-file system buffers in performing the transmission. For example, when data is sent to the file system to be written to one or more storage media, the file system swaps one or more buffers of the file system with the one or more buffers containing the data. The swapping does not require the copying of data. Further, for a read operation, the file system calls a routine, which is provided with one or more pointers to the data that is to be sent to a requester of the data.
