Hi,

I just tried the following test.

Run the application TutorialEx1 in the demos directory using an input file of
around 28 MB  in size (I created this cat-ing together 3 copies of the c. 9 MB
file - Massive.out - in the demos/files/ncbiblast directory of the biojava
distribution).

I ran the program under J2SE 1.3.1_01, running under Solaris 8.

Everything seemed to work fine.

Should be trivial for someone who uses Win2K for their development environment to
try this test.
