--------------------------------------------------------------------

I don't see what similar-sized files has to do with it.  CRAR buffer size is 
independent of file size, and that's what causes the fragmentation.  (Zeroing 
out large buffers isn't free, either.)

> Reader pooling was introduced in CASSANDRA-4942 but pooled 
> RandomAccessReaders are never cleaned up until the SSTableReader is closed.  
> So memory use is "the worst case simultaneous RAR we had open for this file, 
> forever."
> We should introduce a global limit on how much memory to use for RAR, and 
> evict old ones.
