Dawid Weiss commented on LUCENE-6239:
-------------------------------------

The patch looks good. 

I still disagree with what's been said about the insecurity of our previous 
usage of Unsafe -- we made safe measurements and fell back to sane defaults. No 
failure of this code was ever reported (and wouldn't be). Now we don't make 
measurements, but rely on (still sane!) assumptions. But these may or may not 
hold true; {{-XX:ObjectAlignmentInBytes=16}}...

But ok, I shut up now.

> This is unnecessary risk. We should remove this stuff, it is not needed here.
