-------------------------------------------------------------------

I've noticed a lot of inconsistency, some DataFormat's just return a 
InputStream others that could return an InputStream read it into a buffer then 
return that buffer, and then we have StreamCaching, which is intended to solve 
the issue of buffering too much data in memory/heap. But a lot of those places 
we use StreamCaching we could also just return the InputStream in question..

I've been thinking of adding support to the DataFormat's I care about to 
configure the desired behavior, return byte[], raw InputStream or stream cached 
InputStream.

And I must admit I was tempted to change the behavior of existing DataFormat's 
to return their raw InputStream's instead of fixing StreamCaching, but I 
figured that might break someone else.

What are your thoughts?  

My use case is, decrypt, unzip, and split file content using a streaming 
iterator. So having a bunch of wrapped InputStreams would be much more 
efficient than buffering things in a StreamCache twice (decrypt, unzip).

> StreamCache does not work correctly with MarshalProcessor and pretty much all 
> DataFormats
> # Documentation states that stream caching can be turned on, on a per route 
> basis. The places were we actually try and utilize stream caching only checks 
> if the global option is turned on (MarshalProcessor + PGPKeyAccessDataFormat, 
> I can't find any other meaningful attempts to use stream caching anywhere 
> else) not the per route setting.
> # Secondly, if we ignore the first problem, only one data formatter tries to 
> use stream caching for unmarshaling: PGPKeyAccessDataFormat. If you try and 
> unzip a large zip file it's contents will be decompressed into memory. The 
> same goes for any other large data formatter conversion (unmarshaling, only).
> Attached is a patch that corrects the first problem and part of the second 
> problem (ZipFileDataFormat, ZipDataFormat and PGPKeyAccessDataFormat).
> A separate issue should probably be opened to fix all the remaining 
> DataFormat implementation to support Stream Caching.
