> During compaction we allocate a new byte[] in ByteArrayAccessor.read. This
> is one of the hottest paths in the codebase, hit during writes, compaction,
> creating tables, and possibly others. In my performance tests using default
> compaction settings of 64MB I see this responsible for 40% of allocations.
> This is largely what drives GC pause frequency and duration. If we are able
> to eliminate the O(N) allocations performed here, this might be one of the
> best optimizations we could do for the number of things it touches.
> Allocation profile attached.
