The Disruptor needs Java 6. Internally it uses the sun.misc.Unsafe class. There 
may be JVMs that do not have this class, although I doubt that is actually the 
case: many of the java.* classes in the Oracle implementation  rely on it. I 
know that the Azul JVM has this class. 

I was worried that there may be scenarios where an application would not have 
the security privileges to use this class. I haven't checked if such scenarios 
exist...
