Mikhail Bautin updated HBASE-5387:
----------------------------------
Description:
We need to to reuse compression streams in HFileBlock.Writer instead of
allocating them every time. The motivation is that when using Java's built-in
implementation of Gzip, we allocate a new GZIPOutputStream object and an
associated native data structure every time we create a compression stream. The
native data structure is only deallocated in the finalizer. This is one
suspected cause of recent TestHFileBlock failures on Hadoop QA:
https://builds.apache.org/job/HBase-TRUNK/2658/testReport/org.apache.hadoop.hbase.io.hfile/TestHFileBlock/testPreviousOffset_1_/.
