+  <description>
+    Binary Diff is CommonJava's implementation of the binary diff algorithm. It parses an inbound
+    ByteBuffer into a map of byte occurrences, and then finds the best chunk delimiter based on 
+    minimum standard deviation and minimum average of the chunk length when divided by the candidate
+    chunk delimiter. Then, using this character, it chunks each ByteBuffer (original and new), and
+    proceeds much like any other diff algorithm. When a chunk is in the original but not the new, 
+    that represents deleted information. When the chunk is in the new but not the original, that is
+    added information. These operations (adds and deletes) are then organized so that the engine can 
+    reapply them to the new stream to retrieve the old stream. It could use some optimization, but
+    it works and we're pretty happy about that.
