You are doing your own buffering, not using BufferedReader right?

In that case, when you read a char[] it might do a big physical i/o,
no?

In the days of 16K computers, when you did this sort of thing, the OS
would schedule a read to a second buffer while you were processing the
first. Oddly now that we have RAM to burn, we no longer do that though
I suppose the OS might do some speculative reading.
