Sounds good. Thanks for the test / proof.

> * {{LongAdder}} introduced to trunk consumes 9MiB of heap without user
> schemas, and this will grow significantly under contention and user schemas
> with many tables. This is because {{LongAdder}} is a very heavy class
> designed for single contended values.
> ** This can likely be improved significantly, without significant loss of
> performance in the contended case, by simply increasing the size of our
> primitive backing array and providing multiple buckets, with each thread
> picking a bucket to increment, or simply multiple backing arrays. Probably a
> better way still to do this would be to introduce some competition detection
> to the update, much like {{LongAdder}} utilises, that increases the number of
> backing arrays under competition.
> ** To save memory this approach could partition the space into chunks that
> are likely to be updated together, so that we do not need to duplicate the
> entire array under competition.
> * Similarly, binary search is costly and a measurable cost as a share of the
> new networking work (without filtering it was > 10% of the CPU used overall).
> We can compute an approximation floor(log2 n / log2 1.2) extremely cheaply,
> to save the random memory access costs.
