   this is the whole thing we do un UnROOT.jl for a physics-community only 
thing called `TTree`, their next-gen storage called `RNTuple` is basically 
`Feather`:

   while we will get there eventually, in `UnROOT` I have the whole machinery 
basically:
   - `getindex` -> find the row group -> 
       - if not in cache, decompress and put in cache
       - if in cache, directly try to locate the slot
   
   this way, at most one row group worth of data ever lives in RAM, in fact 
that's the minimal amount you need in RAM, because you can only know row number 
start-end for an entire row group and you have to count inside it.
   
   but yeah, this is a whole thing in UnROOT.jl and it's mission-critical 
because our data are like, O(100) GB compressed all the time
