> When we try to read a block we do checksum verification for which we need the
> file name in which the block belongs to. So we do Path.toString() every time.
> This seems to create around 163MB of char[] that is garbage collected in a
> simple scan run. It is also visible in writes but the impact is lesser. In
> overall write/read profile the top 2 factors are byte[] and char[]. This
> toString() can easily be avoided and reduce its share from the total.
