Is it the norm to use one ByteBuffer for both reading and writing or to
have separate ones for each?

Well, i would use it for both reading and writing, if this makes sense. If
i had to jump through many additional hops, allocating another buffer is
preferable to horribly contrived code to share one buffer.
