offheap-store document should be enhanced #7

thanks for terrocotta with its contribution to offheap-store to be open source. as it provides the integration for ehcache3 for offheap storage. but as you know, it seems very complex in ehcache does. so it's not very easy or well documented to guide others to use its api. we hope more document could be provided as terrocotta offheap storage is more matured.

I do have plans to write a sequence of blog posts explaining how things are structured, how they work, and some recipes for how to put things together. This will also likely result in a pull request with some welcome javadoc additions too. I can't promise anything by any hard deadlines however.

@chrisdennis, thanks for feed back. aim of open source is for communication enhancement so it is with the project development. there're many choices for offheap implementation but terrocotta is famous for its bigmemory so we've got to know that it's testified in many use cases and worthy of trying and learning and also put into practice.

@chrisdennis, any update with this, it seems that ehcache3 did comprehensive integration with off-heap component which seemed not easy for others to master. so please leave us some advice if it could be used for other cache solution.

@AbfrmBlr, I think not myself but also others who took interest in offheap area hope the terracotta-oss team could make the document enhanced like md or pdf document is much appreciated of. compared to other offheap way like mapdb, I found it was too much complexed for integration when view the source codes originated from ehcache3 and even I didn't know what was the key point class for integration just like you provided a lot of choice but you didn't event know where to start. by the way, I could not open such website so I think better document organized is much welcomed.
