stack commented on HBASE-10719:
-------------------------------

I was thinking that whether the bytes were off-heap or on-heap an 
implementation detail hidden behind the Cell Interface: e.g. class 
CellWithOffHeapValue implements Cell ?

> Cell interface may need a ByteBuffer rather than a byte[]

> The byte[] backing a cell may be off heap also.  In such a case having a 
> byte[] may require a copy offheap to on heap.  So better to have ByteBuffer 
> backing a Cell.
