Description
Tez Fetcher currently leaks a codec pool (~32kb) for each partition fetched
This causes task failures due to the direct buffers allocated by the codec, which are not freed until a full GC (but whose allocation does not trigger GC).
It is possible to perform the entire shuffle operations without ever triggering a full GC, the following case
