However the NIO is consistently much faster overall. I am not convinced that this conclusion is warranted. There are a few factors which I believe make your conclusion questionable: - You included class loading time in your measurement. For example, assuming that all io functionality is implemented on top of nio it would be logical to expect more classes to be loaded. There are a number of use cases where it matters - but there are also use cases where it doesn't matter (long running servers). - Generally we are dealing with quite low timings (around 100ms) and relatively high variations. Also the test was made on Windows and the System.currentTimeMillis() is known to be imprecise on that platform (in the order of tens of milliseconds). - Your io approach does not use FileFilter which some have suggested to be a way to avoid constructing a large result array. - The test is an artificial situation. With all factors like JVM involved it may be that in a realistic application things look different to an extent that the differences you measured here do not matter any more.
