1000000 baud - 1mbps serial with FTDI

First i find it strange that Processing starts off with 760mb memory footprint and gradually increases the number of threads until my MacBook crashes.
Not very nice but i can tolerate it by regularly killing the process manually ("Quit" from the menu doesn't work).


but my main question is can I open a com port at 1mbps ?
I need to communicate with an Arduino Diecimila at this speed with FTDI serial USB driver emulation which can go up to 3mbps easily.

Here is the error when trying to open the port at anything above 115kbps:

gnu.io.UnsupportedCommOperationException: Invalid Parameter
at gnu.io.RXTXPort.setSerialPortParams(RXTXPort.java:171)

thanks
