Stefania commented on CASSANDRA-8897:
-------------------------------------

Few questions:
\\
\\
- Does the buffer pool need to support metrics just like the FileCacheService 
did?

- What about the maximum memory size beyond which it cannot grow?

- Should we create an initial number of buffers or should we just grow the pool 
dynamically?

- Should the pool be only a replacement of FileCacheService, therefore used 
only by PoolingSegmentedFile and derived classes  when calling 
createPooledReader(), or should the scope be extended to all RARs created by 
SegmentedFile instances?

> Remove FileCacheService, instead pooling the buffers

> After CASSANDRA-8893, a RAR will be a very lightweight object and will not 
> need caching, so we can eliminate this cache entirely. Instead we should have 
> a pool of buffers that are page-aligned.
