> Currently, we have the following api's to customize the behavior of scans:
> setCaching() - how many rows to cache on client to speed up scans
> setBatch() - max columns per row to return per row to prevent a very large response.
> Ideally, we should be able to specify a memory buffer size because:
> 1. that would take care of both of these use cases.
> 2. it does not need any knowledge of the size of the rows or cells, as the final thing we are worried about is the available memory.
