             Summary: Support variable sized chunks from ChunkCreator
                 Key: HBASE-19506
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-19506
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Sub-task
            Reporter: Anastasia Braginsky


When CellChunkMap is created it allocates a special index chunk (or chunks) 
where array of cell-representations is stored. When the number of 
cell-representations is small, it is preferable to allocate a chunk smaller 
than a default value which is 2MB.

On the other hand, those "non-standard size" chunks can not be used in pool. 
On-demand allocations in off-heap are costly. So this JIRA is about to 
investigate the trade of between memory usage and the final performance.
