I would use use Unix shell command "cat" to paste all files into 1 big file and
then just read that file. the slowness is coming from too many open and close
calls.
when reading large files Java is as fast as python.

Hi,
My application needs to read around 5 small ascii (1-25lines) files.
Currently I use the BufferedReader API to read ascii files.
Can you suggest something faster than the below.
Thanks
private ArrayList readDataFile(String fileName) {
String lineData;
