> fields
> -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: THRIFT-484
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-484
> Project: Thrift
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Compiler (Java), Library (Java)
> Reporter: Bryan Duxbury
> Assignee: Bryan Duxbury
> Fix For: 0.4
>
>
> The HBase folks who are considering using Thrift for their internal and
> external RPC have suggested that it would be a useful performance enhancement
> to be able to use a subslice of a byte array as the value of a binary field,
> without first doing a new byte array copy. Done correctly, this would mean
> that the data could be copied once from when it is read in from the socket to
> when it is written out as part of HBase's internal datastructures.
> This enhancement seems like it could boost the performance of things in
> Hadoop, as well, so it could be a really nice option to investigate.
