Have we considered using vint encoding on those arrays as we keep them in memory anyway to minimize space consumption?

Edit: i remember now why that is not a good idea :) I wonder though how what could memory footprint be if we use TreeMap inside and keys and offsets (in vint encoding) saved in native memory...

> IndexSummary can still use a lot of heap for narrow-row sstables.  (It can also contribute to memory fragmentation because of the large arrays it creates.)
