Review Comment:
   I agree that it's not a perfect solution, it's an attempt at doing 
something. There are other options that could be added, like only check for 
free memory if the length is over some size. The problem we run into is that 
the tablet server is running N scans concurrently, JVM memory is under 
pressure, and it doesn't know that the next K/V it's going to read is going to 
create a very large (500MB, 1GB) Value object.
