> Allow zero-copy reads again

> Key: CASSANDRA-8449
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-8449
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: T Jake Luciani
> Assignee: T Jake Luciani
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: performance
> Fix For: 3.0
>
>
> We disabled zero-copy reads in CASSANDRA-3179 due to in flight reads
> accessing a ByteBuffer when the data was unmapped by compaction. Currently
> this code path is only used for uncompressed reads.
> The actual bytes are in fact copied to the client output buffers for both
> netty and thrift before being sent over the wire, so the only issue really is
> the time it takes to process the read internally.
> This patch adds a slow network read test and changes the tidy() method to
> actually delete a sstable once the readTimeout has elapsed giving plenty of
> time to serialize the read.
> Removing this copy causes significantly less GC on the read path and improves
> the tail latencies:
