[jira] [Created] (HBASE-10719) Cell interface may need a ByteBuffer rather than a byte[]

ramkrishna.s.vasudevan created HBASE-10719:
----------------------------------------------

             Summary: Cell interface may need a ByteBuffer rather than a byte[]
                 Key: HBASE-10719
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-10719
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Sub-task
            Reporter: ramkrishna.s.vasudevan
            Assignee: ramkrishna.s.vasudevan


See discussion in HBASE-10531. 
The byte[] backing a cell may be off heap also.  In such a case having a byte[] may require a copy offheap to on heap.  So better to have ByteBuffer backing a Cell.
