Tony,
Why native code for this? What does this do that NIO Direct Buffers can't
do?
If not NIO, why not use an existing open source? Netty has a direct buffer
wrapper. And there's the DirectMemory Apache Incubator [1] (that I know
nothing about).
If still not NIO, why not use memcached, redis or the equivalent?
Just curious your thinking.
