James commented on HADOOP-9196:
-------------------------------

That would definitely work.  I think it violates good OO principles to an  
extent (open/close principle, encapsulation), so I was hoping for a more 
elegant solution, but in this case I suppose it's worth the trade-off.

> It appears that org.apache.hadoop.util.bloom.BloomFilter's write() method 
> creates a byte array large enough to fit the entire bit vector into memory 
> during serialization.  This is unnecessary and may cause out of memory issues 
> if the bit vector is sufficiently large and memory is tight.
