I wonder when readNBytes(n) will be useful if the return value has less than n bytes.

Also some verbiage has been improved. http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~bpb/8139206/webrev.01/ The updated version looks good. I just wonde about the "For example ..." in the @throws OOME description. The API can't be called with a len > Integer.MAXVALUE so this example could be confusing - I think just drop that sentence. Minor formatting in passing. At L128 and L339 it would be easier to read if the "throws IOException" were on the previous line. Also L355 might be a bit clear if the Math.min was indented (have to look twice to see that it's not in the while body). -Alan
