Review comment:
       we should probably estimate whether it is better to send data over the 
wire using columnar format
   1. there's tradeoff when encoding data in row vs. columnar format when 
key-partitioned block split operation is done (for example distributed 
hash-join)
   2. there's tradeoff when data arrived at the receiving end and being 
processed (obviously columnar format wins in many of the situation)
   in this case let's come up with a columnar format as well as a row-based 
format (for the data block sent over mailbox)
   
   because if columnar format turns up performing better, we don't need to 
reinvent a row-base operator code
