Vijay commented on CASSANDRA-1969:
----------------------------------

Thanks Jonathan, This indeed looks cleaner than allocateDirect.... wasnt aware 
of jna.Memory earlier.... 

Regarding "and allocation is O(N)" --- It provides O(1) as it is backed by 
Queue and HashMap (which can have maximum of Integer.Max elements in HM) ... 
the idea was to reduce the number of operations while write..... With the 
assumption that the GC will cleanup the WeekReference immediately, and wont 
grow or fragment.... 

+1 for Jonathan's approach....

> Use BB for row cache - To Improve GC performance.

> Java BB.allocateDirect() will allocate native memory out of the JVM and will 
> help reducing the GC pressure in the JVM with a large Cache.
> From some of the basic tests it shows around 50% improvement than doing a 
> normal Object cache.
> In addition this patch provide the users an option to choose 
> BB.allocateDirect or store everything in the heap.
