------------------------------------------------
Finally after all the different test cases executed we have come to the
conclusion that atleast in the Memstore case where we do millions of
comparisons in a write heavy work load, we found that having the same type of
Cell instance makes the comparisons faster rather than one being KV and other
being offheap KV. More details in follow on JIRA.
So the decision was that to make OffheapKV also similar to KV in terms of
caching (means we won't be adding anything as state variables in OffheapKV) and
just leave it as how KV works.
Also in the follow on JIRA after we copy the cell to MSLAB we will return a
cell of OffheapKV type only. I think it is better we rename to ByteBufferCell
so that it can be a cell backed by onheap /offheap cells.
> Add non cached version of OffheapKV for write path

> After running lot of different performance tests for various scenarios and
> with multi threads we thought that is better to have a version of OffheapKV
> in write path that does not cache anything and its fixed_overhead is equal to
> that in KeyValue.
