    Description

      FileInputStream relies on finalization to perform final closes if the FIS is not already closed.
      This results in extra work for GC that occurs in a burst. The cleanup of FileInputStreams
      should happen sooner and not contribute to overhead in GC.
      With PhantomReferences a lightweight cleanup mechanism or other suitable mechanism could be implemented.
