Review Comment:
   If you want to make it faster:
   `self.offsets_builder.append_trusted_len_iter(` could be used outside of the 
loop with an offset iterator.
   
   IMO, also a `reserve` should be added here as this is a builder API - it 
makes not really sense in most cases to use a builder if you know the capacity 
upfront (you can build the array directly, which will be faster anyway.
