> We keep a per-record crc32. This is fairly cheap algorithm, but the java
> implementation uses JNI and it seems to be a bit expensive for small records.
> I have seen this before in Kafka profiles, and I noticed it on another
> application I was working on. Basically with small records the native
> implementation can only checksum < 100MB/sec. Hadoop has done some analysis
> of this and replaced it with a Java implementation that is 2x faster for
> large values and 5-10x faster for small values. Details are here HADOOP-6148.
> We should do a quick read/write benchmark on log and message set iteration
> and see if this improves things.
