             Summary: Provide a ByteBuffer based write path
                 Key: PARQUET-78
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PARQUET-78
             Project: Parquet
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: parquet-mr
            Reporter: Parth Chandra
         Attachments: parquet-ByteBuffer-write.diff

Similar to the effort to use a ByteBuffer in the read path, we should provide a 
path to use a ByteBuffer in the write path.

The proposed idea is to provide an allocator in the writer that is passed down 
to CapacityByteArrayOutputStream and is used to allocate a ByteBuffer instead 
of the byte array that it currently uses. 

I've attached a patch based on the 1.5 release that does that. There are two 
implementations of the allocator - one for Heap memory and one for Direct 
memory. In addition, the allocator interface allows for a 'release' method so 
that reference counted memory allocators like Netty's ByteBuf can be used to 
provide an allocator.
