> This hides the fact that an Error occurred, and will likely result in some log handler printing a message, instead of exiting with non-zero status.  Knowing how large the allocation was that caused an OOM is really nice, so I'd suggest logging in byteBufferAllocate and then re-throwing OutOfMemoryError
