Review Comment:
   I agree with @wgtmac that this doesn't solve the problem, and also 
introduces other issues by introducing another buffer. Since writes to object 
stores are pretty expensive, those libraries often pre-allocate a rather big 
buffer. Adding another buffer as suggested in the PR will introduce more memory 
pressure, which I think should be avoided. This problem will amplify if you 
write to a lot of files in parallel.
