We are now reading the CSV input without transforming
the data into strings. This reduces the amount of bytes
that have to be converted and copied.
We also made Tag smaller. It no longer stores pointers
to strings, instead it stored integers obtained by
compressing the strings (see StringCompressor). This
reduces memory usage and it speeds up hashcode and
equals, which speeds up access to the writer cache.
Performance gain is almost 100%:
- 330k entries/s -> 670k entries/s, top speed measured over a second
- 62s -> 32s, to ingest 16 million entries
