/**
* A region of a file that is sent via a {@link Channel} which supports
* <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero-copy">zero-copy file transfer</a>.
*
* <h3>Upgrade your JDK / JRE</h3>
*
* {@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.
* <ul>
* <li><a href="http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=5103988">5103988</a>
* - FileChannel.transferTo() should return -1 for EAGAIN instead throws IOException</li>
* <li><a href="http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6253145">6253145</a>
* - FileChannel.transferTo() on Linux fails when going beyond 2GB boundary</li>
* <li><a href="http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6427312">6427312</a>
* - FileChannel.transferTo() throws IOException "system call interrupted"</li>
* <li><a href="http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6524172">6470086</a>
* - FileChannel.transferTo(2147483647, 1, channel) causes "Value too large" exception</li>
* </ul>
*
* <h3>Check your operating system and JDK / JRE</h3>
*
* 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.
*
* <h3>Not all transports support it</h3>
