Description

This is a subtask of HAMA-975.

Since 4.0.16, Netty provides the native socket transport for Linux using JNI.
This transport has advantages as below.

• higher performance
• produces less garbage
• edge-triggered
• supports TCP-CORK

So Hama will have better performance in async fashion communication.
