   In looking at this, I checked:
   
   ```
     public static OMRequest convertByteStringToOMRequest(ByteString byteString)
         throws InvalidProtocolBufferException {
       byte[] bytes = byteString.toByteArray();
       return OMRequest.parseFrom(bytes);
     }
   ```
   
   And I noticed it takes the passed byteString and converts it to Bytes and 
then passes the bytes to `OMRequest.parseFrom()`. OMRequest.parseFrom also 
accepts a ByteString as a parameter, avoiding this copy - however, the 
parameter to this method is 
`org.apache.ratis.thirdparty.com.google.protobuf.ByteString;` and the parameter 
in the method is `com.google.protobuf.ByteString`.
   
   I don't know much about how this Ratis stuff is put together, but it seems 
that we are paying the price for an extra copy on every message received due to 
"different" but likely the same classes being used behind the scenes.
