> The stack-based ByteArrayOutputStream in Server.Hander is reset each time 
> through the run loop.  This will set the BAOS 'size' back to zero but the 
> allocated backing buffer is unaltered.  If during an Handlers' lifecycle, any 
> particular RPC response was fat -- Megabytes, even -- the buffer expands 
> during the write to accommodate the particular response but then never 
> shrinks subsequently.  If a hosting Server has had more than one 'fat 
> payload' occurrence, the resultant occupied heap can provoke memory woes (See 
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-900?focusedCommentId=12654009#action_12654009
>  for an extreme example; occasional payloads of 20-50MB with 30 handlers 
> robbed the heap of 700MB).
