And use fixed-size offsets enable us to avoid allocating offsets array and decoding varints during read. AFAIK, store offsets in plain old little endian ints are common in data stores such as LevelDB, Parquet, ORC, Elasticsearch, etc. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
