Ariel Weisberg commented on CASSANDRA-9738:
-------------------------------------------

For reading a string there is no reason not to use the last bit and allow 
strings 65k strings. It also doesn't throw if the length is too large.

I really would like to get to the one true string reading/writing path if 
possible. So we can put together one good implementation and also to optimize 
icache. To allocate or pool temporary buffers is kind of a question of how 
allocation bound you are. I think the answer for C* right now is very.

Is it feasible to share the same pooling buffer for both the key serialization 
and value serialization? Maybe a little finicky given that size is sometimes 
retrieved in an order that is different from the order they are serialized in.

> Migrate key-cache to be fully off-heap

> Key cache still uses a concurrent map on-heap. This could go to off-heap and 
> feels doable now after CASSANDRA-8099.
> Evaluation should be done in advance based on a POC to prove that pure 
> off-heap counter cache buys a performance and/or gc-pressure improvement.
> In theory, elimination of on-heap management of the map should buy us some 
> benefit.
