It's funny, I was just looking at this yesterday because I was having a
problem similar to what you are describing.
from java.io.PrintWriter ( JDK1.40 ):
public PrintWriter(OutputStream out, boolean autoFlush) {
this(new BufferedWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(out)), autoFlush);
}
So yes, it is buffered :(.
