Description

I've been running some tests with pretty large objects (~100KB). But it seems the field end offsets in the log buffer are of type short [1, 2]. For large fields (> 32KB), the field end offset is going to be a negative value due to overflow. When recovery kicks in, I get an exception that "The length must be a non-negative value".
