Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-10861:
----------------------------------------
bq. The deserailzation logic creates a read only copy of the block cache data.
I think we need to have this behaviour to have read only byte ranges also.
What do you say?
Not getting why we just wouldn't scribble on the block cache data.
Anyway sounds like the idea is to have read only ByteRanges by default and a
MutableByteRange when not, and that would be good.

> We would need APIs that would
> setLimit(int limit)
> getLimt()
> asReadOnly()
> These APIs would help in implementations that have Buffers offheap (for now
> BRs backed by DBB).
> If anything more is needed could be added when needed.
