Not really a nice comment but a real issue?

[Kevin Rushforth]

This isn't something we'd change anyway without a lot of discussion; 
almost certainly we would leave the current behavior as the default, and 
provide an "opt out" for applications that prefer to do so.

As for the performance problem, ignoring the tone of the blog and the 
fact that the point is blown out of proportion, the lack of buffering in 
this case is clearly a bug, which I just filed as JDK-8263875 [1].

Clement: regarding the issue about using and InputStream with JavaFX 
Service / Task: it sounds like it might be a bug, so if you have a 
complete test program, can you file a bug at https://bugreport.java.com/ ?
