BinMemInputStream::readBytes is inefficient

           Summary: BinMemInputStream::readBytes is inefficient
           Product: Xerces-C++
           Version: Nightly build
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: Utilities
        AssignedTo: xerces-c-dev@xml.apache.org
        ReportedBy: mlovett@uk.ibm.com


While profiling Xerces, we identified a significant CPU spike in the 
BinMemInputStream, when we copy some data from one buffer to another:

<    for (unsigned int index = 0; index < actualToRead; index++)
<        toFill[index] = fBuffer[fCurIndex++];

replacing this with:

>    memcpy(toFill, &fBuffer[fCurIndex], actualToRead);
>    fCurIndex += actualToRead;

gave a 2% overall increase in our application throughput, and removed the
spike from the profile.
