Here's Peter's HugeCollections repo[1].

I expected to see some native code being called via JNI, but it's all done in Java.

Well, the native code is replaced by the use of sun.misc.Unsafe to do the off heap allocation and access (look in io & storage classes in https://github.com/OpenHFT/Java-Lang/tree/master/lang/src/ma... ).

I wonder what this sort of library will look like when Panama is done, assuming it provides the sort of structured off heap storage support I'm hoping for.
