Only somewhat related: There's such a thing as new new IO. Our own Carl Quinn has worked on it. This is a pretty big revamp of file I/O and might address either the OP's problem or Christian Catchpole's network speed issues with File's many many roundtrips. I confess I don't know enough about it to know for sure, but perhaps you two may want to look at it, if only to dream of a future where you can rely on JDK7 to be the standard java version and use it.
