I've got some very basic code like

while (scan.hasNextLine())
{
    String temp = scan.nextLine();
    System.out.println(temp);
}

where scan is a Scanner over a file.

However, on one particular line, which is about 6k chars long, temp cuts out after something like 2470 characters. There's nothing special about when it cuts out; it's in the middle of the word "Australia." If I delete characters from the line, the place where it cuts out changes; e.g. if I delete characters 0-100 in the file then Scanner will get what was previously 100-2570.

I've used Scanner for larger strings before. Any idea what could be going wrong?
