   Wrapping a byte array in a `ByteBuffer` is the most efficient. In the 
following implementation an array copy is only needed when hitting EOF:
   
   ```
       public static byte[] readRange(final ReadableByteChannel input, final 
int len) throws IOException {
           final byte[] out = new byte[len];
           final ByteBuffer b = ByteBuffer.wrap(out);
           while (b.hasRemaining()) {
               if (input.read(b) <= 0) {
                   break;
               }
           }
           if (b.hasRemaining()) {
               // We hit EOF and read less bytes, return a smaller array than 
len
               return Arrays.copyOf(b.array(), b.position());
           } else {
               return out;
           }
       }
