> Explicit management of buffer lifecycle in the block cache
> ----------------------------------------------------------

> Key: HBASE-4026
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-4026
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: regionserver
> Reporter: Jason Rutherglen
> Priority: Minor
>
> The HBase block cache can be problematic because it is unpredictable when
> Java will reclaim the unused byte arrays using garbage collection.
> JNA (Java Native Access from Sun/Oracle) provides one possible way to solve
> this problem.
> https://github.com/twall/jna
> Memory is the name of the class that can be used to test the implementation.
