> While working on Scio's next version, I noticed that {{StringUtf8Coder}} is 
> slower than expected.
> I wrote a small micro-benchmark using {{jmh}} that serialises a (scala) List 
> of a 1000 Strings using a custom {{Coder[List[_]]}}. While profiling it, I 
> noticed that a lot of time is spent in 
> {{java.io.DataInputStream.<init>(java.io.InputStream)}}.
> Looking into the code for 
> {{StringUtf8Coder}}, the {{readString}} method is directly reading bytes. It 
> therefore does not seem that a {{DataInputStream}} is necessary.
> I replaced {{StringUtf8Coder}} with a {{Coder[String]}} implementation (in 
> Scala), that is essentially the same as {{StringUtf8Coder}} but is not using 
> {{DataInputStream}}.

> Is there any particular reason to use {{DataInputStream}} ? 
> Do you think we can remove that to make {{StringUtf8Coder}} more efficient ?
