> The {{DFSInputStream}} read-path always copies bytes into a JVM-allocated
> {{byte[]}}. Although for many clients this is desired behaviour, in certain
> situations, such as native-reads through libhdfs, this imposes an extra copy
> penalty since the {{byte[]}} needs to be copied out again into a natively
> readable memory area.
> For these cases, it would be preferable to allow the client to supply its own
> buffer, wrapped in a {{ByteBuffer}}, to avoid that final copy overhead.
