Folks, Bolot is right about the bug in how DataStream stores large strings on the disk. There was one bug in reading of strings between 192 and 16384 long, and another in reading strings >16384. You can tell this was not used much.... I sent him a permanent fix, and it will be in an update soon. --Ted.
