Motivation: We want to be able to compare the performance of the existing ByteBuf implementation, and the new MemorySegment based BBuf. Modification: Copy the existing access benchmark for ByteBuf, and modify the copy to use the new BBuf instead. Result: We are able to get our first benchmark runs with BBuf. The cost of accessing memory in BBuf is roughly twice that of the comparable ByteBuf implementations. I think we'll need to improve this if we want BBuf to be a viable path forward.
