>             Project: Axis 2.0 (Axis2)
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 1.1.1
>         Environment: SUN JRE 5.0 Update 11, Apache Tomcat 5.5.23, Windows XP 
> Professional
>            Reporter: Dirk Niededir

> I have implemented a small AXIOM based Service using the AXIS2 1.1.1 WAR-file.
> I am using the DataHandler to receive big Byte-Arrays (base64binary). Using 
> MTOM, AXIS2 is converting them to attachments. This works fine using small 
> Byte-Arrays. To avoid a OutOfMemoryError, I enabled the file based cache 
> using the parameters cacheAttachments=true, attachmentDIR=cachedir and 
> sizeThreshold=30000 in the axis2.conf. This still works fine but very slow, 
> if the size is greater than sizeThreshold. I know File access should be 
> slower than using RAM. But this works much slower than it should and the CPU 
> is at maximum. 
> Using the Windows-Tool "Process Monitor" ( 
> http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/utilities/processmonitor.mspx 
> ), I saw that the axis*.att files are written in blocks with size=1. This 
> might be a hint.
> For this I have written a small test, which writes a 50MB file to disk either 
> buffered or unbuffered:
> --------------------------
>       File file = new File( "C:/java/temp/test.txt");
>       if( file.exists())
>               file.delete();
>       file.createNewFile();
>       long startTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
>       
>       OutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream( file);
>       boolean buffered = true;
>       if( buffered)
>               fos = new BufferedOutputStream( fos);
>       
>       int count = 0;
>       while( count < 50*1000000) {
>               count++;
>               fos.write( 'a');
>       }
>       fos.close();
>       
>       long endTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
>       
>       System.out.println("time = "+(endTime-startTime)+"ms");
> --------------------------
> if the buffered-flag is false, then time = 203360ms and CPU ~ 90%
> if the buffered-flag is true,  then time = 2763ms       and CPU ~ 30%
> The buffered version is 73.6 times faster with a much lower CPU utilization!
> This confirms to the hint. So decoration of the FileOutputStream for the 
> axis*.att-Files with a BufferedOutputStream will fix this "bug". 
> Maybe it is a Windows-Problem, but the decoration will not be a disadvantage 
> for other systems.
