>             Project: Hive
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: File Formats
>    Affects Versions: 0.14.0
>         Environment: ORC Table ~ 12 string columns
>            Reporter: Gopal V

> When ORC string dictionary writes data out, it suffers from bad GC performance due to a few allocations in-loop.
> !orc-string-write.png!
> The conversions are as follows
> StringTreeWriter::getStringValue() causes 2 conversions
> LazyString -> Text (LazyString::getWritableObject)
> Text -> String (LazyStringObjectInspector::getPrimitiveJavaObject)
> Then StringRedBlackTree::add() does one conversion
> String -> Text
> This causes some GC pressure with un-necessary String and byte[] array allocations.
