> Of the existing BucketCache IOEngines, FileIOEngine uses pread() to copy data
> from kernel space to user space. This is a good choice when the total working
> set size is much bigger than the available RAM and the latency is dominated
> by IO access. However, when the entire working set is small enough to fit in
> the RAM, using mmap() (and subsequent memcpy()) to move data from kernel
> space to user space is faster. I have run some short keyval gets tests and
> the results indicate a reduction of 2%-7% of kernel CPU on my system,
> depending on the load. On the gets, the latency histograms from mmap() are
> identical to those from pread(), but peak throughput is close to 40% higher.
> This patch modifies ByteByfferArray to allow it to specify a backing file.
> Example for using this feature: set hbase.bucketcache.ioengine to
> mmap:/dev/shm/bucketcache.0 in hbase-site.xml.
> Attached perf measured CPU usage breakdown in flames graph.
