Review Comment:
The main issue is because we try to load the entire file into a single
String object which is limited. Even though the machine has memory, the String
object is limited to the size of an array as seen here:
https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/blob/f1d85ab3e61f923b4e120cf30e16109e04505b53/src/java.base/share/classes/java/lang/String.java#L568
When we use a delimiter with a Scanner, the entire file is not loaded into a
String object before splitting it.
The payLoadScanner.next() starts parsing from the position where it is
currently at and keeps searching for the delimiter as seen here:
https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/blob/f1d85ab3e61f923b4e120cf30e16109e04505b53/src/java.base/share/classes/java/util/Scanner.java#L1011
