Review comment:
I imagine this is already taken care of in the C++ somehow but I would
expected something like:
``` r
on.exit(writer$Close())
writer$WriteTable(x, chunk_size = chunk_size)
```
...to clean up the writer as soon as possible in case `WriteTable` errors.

Review comment:
In the comment below you say 2.5 million...this would be `2.5e6` instead
of `2.5e8`?
