-------------------------------------
Shall we call these experiments done, I think it concludes that where we do get
wins they are minor and the baggage that comes with is a bit too much

> Just like we will create native Dir impl (UnixDirectory) to pass the right OS
> level IO flags depending on the IOContext, we could in theory do something
> similar with MMapDir.
> The problem is MMap is apparently quite hairy... and to pass the flags the
> native code would need to invoke mmap (I think?), unlike UnixDir where the
> code "only" has to open the file handle.
