I suspect that a FILE* points to a struct with a buffer pointer, a characters-in-buffer-count or next-character-pointer, a buffer size and a file descriptor, and putc() is a macro that directly puts one more character in the buffer, then if full writes it, returns EOF if EOF or error, else sets the characters-in-buffer-count to zero or next-character-pointer to the buffer pointer and returns the character written. There is no function call stack overhead as with not-inlined fwrite(), fputs() or fprintf().
