I tried to run my megabyte file of random bytes test but it failed due
to Groovy not supporting arrays of primitive objects at this point ..
it is still pre-FCS. But the plan is to have support for all of java
by FCS. So I'll try the counting to a million some time soon instead.
Probably after I get back from San Diego .. we're pretty busy here
getting my son Tim's house ready to sell prior to their moving to Santa
Fe!
