> When storeAsBinary configuration flag is used, the ExpandableMarshalledValueByteStream is used to serialize objects to byte arrays. 
> However, for value size up to 4kB, almost half of the space for each cache entry can be wasted because the ByteStream is stored as is - with the additional space for future expansion.
> For value size greater than 4kB, only additional 25% of actual value size can be wasted. But as these values can be quite large, the wasted space gets bigger too.
> It is not necessary to store ExpandableMarshalledValueByteStream as is and can be shrinked to actual data size before storing in cache.
