           Summary: System.out PrintStream does too much buffering
           Product: gcc
           Version: 3.4
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: libgcj
        AssignedTo: unassigned at gcc dot gnu dot org
        ReportedBy: bryce at mckinlay dot net dot nz
                CC: gcc-bugs at gcc dot gnu dot org

Compare the output of the following test case (from current CVS) compared with the JRE or an 
earlier libgcj:

public class testOut
{
  public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException
  {
    for (int i=0; i < 20; i++)
    {
      System.out.print(".");
      Thread.sleep(100);
    }
  }
}

System.out is buffering the output too aggressively.
