Vladimir Rodionov commented on HBASE-14613:
-------------------------------------------

In other words, let us do more garbage, GC will take care of it. Yeah, this is 
why people still hate Java. Even if HotSpot allocates 2MB directly in tenured 
space, reusing these buffers decreases OldGen GC frequency, which is rather 
good than bad, I presume. 

> Remove MemStoreChunkPool?

> I just stumbled across MemStoreChunkPool. The idea behind is to reuse chunks 
> of allocations rather than letting the GC handle this.
> Now, it's off by default, and it seems to me to be of dubious value. I'd 
> recommend just removing it.
