Investigate removing the need for an on heap map to store keys/pointers.
------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: DIRECTMEMORY-63
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRECTMEMORY-63
             Project: Apache DirectMemory
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Michael André Pearce


On performance testing and monitoring jvm heap allocation, it became clear that 
as the off heap elements increased so did the on heap used memory. This is 
because DirectMemory is storing keys and pointers in the heap meaning that the 
cache isn't fully off heap, and on heap memory will increase linearly with 
elements in the cache.

An idea maybe is to look into using a key's hash for location on a separate 
single off heap buffer to store the main heaps pointers.
