data record buffering optimizations

Added a loop to set each 1024th byte in the recording array to 1 once the
memory has been allocated.  Need to test if this is good enough to get Linux
to allocate the memory.

Added a current recording buffer pointer to use instead of using array offsets.
This should be more cpu cache efficient.

Changed the memcpy calls to direct casted integer assignments based on the size of the
parameter.  If the parameter is not size 1,2,4,or 8 we fall back to a memcpy.
