stack commented on HBASE-9091:
------------------------------
[~ndimiduk] So, this is not 'api sugar', is it? Because it will show through
in the API? We need this for the other stuff to go in (unless we want
flintstone computing)?

>
> ByteRange is a useful alternative to Java's ByteBuffer. Notably, it is
> mutable and an instance can be assigned over a byte[] after instantiation.
> This is valuable as a performance consideration when working with byte[]
> slices in a tight loop. Its current design is such that it is not possible to
> consume a portion of the range while performing activities like decoding an
> object without altering the definition of the range. It should provide a
> position that is independent from the range's offset and length to make
> partial reads easier.
