> We currently use memory mapped files to buffer data as it's being sorted in 
> an ORDER BY (see MappedByteBufferQueue). The following types of exceptions 
> have been seen to occur:
> {code}
> Caused by: java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Map failed
>         at sun.nio.ch.FileChannelImpl.map0(Native Method)
>         at sun.nio.ch.FileChannelImpl.map(FileChannelImpl.java:904)
> {code}
> [~apurtell] has read that memory mapped files are not cleaned up after very 
> well in Java:
> {quote}
> "Map failed" means the JVM ran out of virtual address space. If you search 
> around stack overflow for suggestions on what to do when your app (in this 
> case Phoenix) encounters this issue when using mapped buffers, the answers 
> tend toward manually cleaning up the mapped buffers or explicitly triggering 
> a full GC. See 
> http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8553158/prevent-outofmemory-when-using-java-nio-mappedbytebuffer
>  for example. There are apparently long standing JVM/JRE problems with 
> reclamation of mapped buffers. I think we may want to explore in Phoenix a 
> different way to achieve what the current code is doing.
> {quote}
> Instead of using memory mapped files, we could use heap memory, or perhaps 
> there are other mechanisms too.
