Thanks Joe. 


Could  anybody help me why we get into the following issue on/off.  This 
(exception) happens when we try to read a large file during the build 
(of Glassfish v3).
This problem is very difficult to reproduce and random in nature.  (this 
is with both 1.5_xx and 1.6xx JDK).

I will file bug against JDK after any insight here.

thanks,
Harsha
