XMLSignatureInput cannot process a file larger than 1GB

The following code snippet causes failure if the file 'filename' size is greater than 1G:
FileInputStream in = new FileInputStream(fileName);
XMLSignatureInput a = new XMLSignatureInput(in);
a.getOctetStream(); // OutOfMemoryError occurs at this line.

Stack trace with failure:
java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Requested array size exceeds VM limit
