I think there is a misundertanding. This PR is not intendend to reduce the 
*amount* of allocated heap, it is about sparing time by not creating *temporary 
 copies*. The latter should be rather easy to check: Invoke `transferTo(out)` 
two times in a row and compare the *identity* of the two byte arrays passed to 
`out.write()`. If they stay the same, then apparently no *temporary copy* was 
created. Two achieve this, the BIS must be wrapper around an extendable input 
stream (like `FileInputStream`) so between calls the stream could get extended 
(e. g. by writing into the file).
