--------------------------------------------
Thanks [~rcmuir], those are good ideas, I'll fold those in.
> BKDWriter should write ords as ints when possible during offline sort

> Today we write all ords as longs, since we support more than 2.1B values in
> one segment, but the vast majority of the time an int would suffice.
> We could look into vLong, but this quickly gets tricky because {{BKDWriter}}
> needs random access to the file and we rely on fixed-width entries to do this
> now.
