> Currently when we read a compressed sstable we copy the data on heap then send it to be de-compressed to another on heap buffer (albeit pooled).
> But now both snappy and lz4 (with CASSANDRA-7039) allow decompression of direct byte buffers.   This lets us mmap the data and decompress completely off heap (and avoids moving bytes over JNI).
> One issue is performing the checksum offheap but the Adler32 does support in java 8 (it's also in java 7 but marked private?!)
> This change yields a > 10% boost in read performance on cstar.  Locally I see upto 30% improvement.
