> BinaryEncoder has not had a performance improvement pass like BinaryDecoder
> did. It still mostly writes directly to the underlying OutputStream which is
> not optimal for performance. I like to use a rule that if you are writing to
> an OutputStream or reading from an InputStream in chunks smaller than 128
> bytes, you have a performance problem.
> Measurements indicate that optimizing BinaryEncoder yields a 2.5x to 6x
> performance improvement. The process is significantly simpler than
> BinaryDecoder because 'pushing' is easier than 'pulling' -- and also because
> we do not need a 'direct' variant because BinaryEncoder already buffers
> sometimes.
