> A buffered data outupt stream is backed by a growable ByteArrayOutputStream, which can only grow to 2GB in size. So if we ever try to write more than 2GB to a buffered output stream during unparse (very possible with large blobs), we'll get an OutOfMemoryError.
> One potential solution is to be aware of the size of a ByteArrayOutputStream when buffering output and automatically create a split when it gets to 2GB in sizes. This will still require a ton of memory since we're buffering these in memoary, but we'll at least be able to unparse more than 2GB of continuous data. 
> Note that we should still be able to unparse more than 2GB of data total, as long as there so single buffer that's more than 2GB.
