> In the current implementation of pipeline sort, when a new sort span object is created with a hard coded value of 1M items and 16 bytes per item.
> According to the present code logic, 
>       int metasize = METASIZE*maxItems;
>       int dataSize = maxItems * perItem;
>       if(capacity < (metasize+dataSize)) {
>         // try to allocate less meta space, because we have sample data
>         metasize = METASIZE*(capacity/(perItem+METASIZE));
>       }
> if capacity is less than 32mb, the buffer will be halved into meta and value buffers, which is not efficient.
> We need a more generic split, based on the KV pair size written to the buffer.
