[osmosis-dev] Buffered XML input

[Curt Nowak]

Hi all,

browsing through the code of Omsosis-Xml, I noticed lines like

"inputStream = new FileInputStream(file);"

both in the run() method of org.openstreetmap.osmosis.xml.v0_6.FastXmlReader and org.openstreetmap.osmosis.xml.v0_6.XmlReader. Maybe I'm overlooking things but shouldn't that better be

"inputStream = new BufferedInputStream(new FileInputStream(file));"  ?

Background info: A collegue reminded me to always buffer my streams recently, so I did. Still he finds that my java jobs on his cluster machine to cause too much i/o activity. That's why I had a look at osmosis, which i use in my application.

So, should that be changed?
