With 6 instances of 'dfs -cat 5GbFile > /dev/null' both tests were cpu bound.

> Currently datanode and client part of DFS perform multiple copies of data on
> the 'read path' (i.e. path from storage on datanode to user buffer on the
> client). This jira reduces these copies by enhancing data read protocol and
> implementation of read on both datanode and the client. I will describe the
> changes in next comment.
> Requirement is that this fix should reduce CPU used and should not cause
> regression in any benchmarks. It might not improve the benchmarks since most
> benchmarks are not cpu bound.
