Ulf,

I do have a "prototype implementation" that uses buffer based read/write on Jar/ZipFile, it is not that "much" faster as you would have expected (basically the gain of using direct buffer comes from saving one or two memory copy of the content, which is very faster, compared to the "real hard" work of moving bits from harddisk to memory). Often those bits are just cached in memory from OS side, maybe also big chunks of rt.jar and charsets.jar after VM is launched. Another 2 cents! -Ulf Our performance team works on both warm start and cold start, the terms we use for the them:-)
