Are you sure the patch is correct? The Lucene decoder in readInt() is 
BIG_ENDIAN and you use native order when creating the varHandle:

{code:java}
   private static int readInt(byte[] buf, int i) {
-    return ((buf[i] & 0xFF) << 24)
-        | ((buf[i + 1] & 0xFF) << 16)
-        | ((buf[i + 2] & 0xFF) << 8)
-        | (buf[i + 3] & 0xFF);
+    return (int) intPlatformNative.get(buf, i);
   }
{code}

> *Summary*
> Java9 introduced VarHandles as a tool to quickly read and write primitive 
> types directly to byte arrays without bound checks. The LZ4 compressor class 
> must consistently read ints from a byte array to analyze matches. The 
> performance can be improved by reading these using a VarHandle.
> Additionally, the LZ4 compressor/decompressor methods currently individually 
> read/write the bytes for LE shorts. Lucene's DataOutput/DataInput 
> abstractions already have dedicated methods for reading/writing LE shorts. 
> These methods are selectively optimized in certain implementations and will 
> provide superior performance than individual byte reads.
> *Concerns*
> The DataOutput/DataInput readShort() and writeShort() methods do not call out 
> that they are LE. It just looks to me that the DataOutput/DataInput are LE? 
> Since this particular change does not appear to provide significant 
> performance wins, maybe the patch is better leaving the explicit individual 
> byte reads?
> Additionally, this patch changes read ints to read them in the platform 
> native order which should be fine since it is just matching bytes. But I can 
> change it to only read in the order the previous version did.
> *Benchmarks*
> I created JMH benchmarks which compresses 1MB of highly compressible JSON 
> observability data. And compresses it 64KB at a time. In order to simulate 
> the "short" changes, I use a forked version `ByteArrayDataOutput` which 
> writes shorts using a VarHandle (to simulate fast writes that the ByteBuffer 
> versions would get.) I also ran a benchmark without the short changes, just 
> the reading ints using a VarHandle.
