/**
 * A region of a file that is sent via a {@link Channel} which supports
 * zero-copy file transfer.
 *
 * Upgrade your JDK / JRE
 *
 * {@link FileChannel#transferTo(long, long, WritableByteChannel)} has at least
 * four known bugs in the old versions of Sun JDK and perhaps its derived ones.
 * Please upgrade your JDK to 1.6.0_18 or later version if you are going to use
 * zero-copy file transfer.
 * 
 * 5103988
 *   - FileChannel.transferTo() should return -1 for EAGAIN instead throws IOException
 * 6253145
 *   - FileChannel.transferTo() on Linux fails when going beyond 2GB boundary
 * 6427312
 *   - FileChannel.transferTo() throws IOException "system call interrupted"
 * 6470086
 *   - FileChannel.transferTo(2147483647, 1, channel) causes "Value too large" exception
 * 
 *
 * Check your operating system and JDK / JRE
 *
 * If your operating system (or JDK / JRE) does not support zero-copy file
 * transfer, sending a file with {@link FileRegion} might fail or yield worse
 * performance.  For example, sending a large file doesn't work well in Windows.
 *
 * Not all transports support it
