Description

CodecBuffer overrides the finalize() method for leak detection. It turns out causing a much longer GC time. (Thanks duongnguyen for finding it out.)

This JIRA is to change CodecBuffer not to override finalize(). In the test, we will create a subclass to override CodecBuffer for leak detection.

For more information, please see the first two comments below.
