Thanks [~jpountz], that's a good idea, here's a patch using the existing
{{MathUtil.log}}.
> Can we increase the stack depth before Introsorter switches to heapsort?

> Introsort is a "safe" quicksort: it uses quicksort but detects when an
> adversary is at work and cuts over to heapsort at that point.
> The description at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Introsort shows the cutover
> as 2X log_2(N) but our impl ({{IntroSorter}}) currently uses just log_2.
> So I tested using 2X log_2 instead, and I see a decent (~5.6%, from 98.2 sec
> to 92.7 sec) speedup in the time for offline sorter to sort when doing the
> force merge of 6.1 LatLonPoints from the London UK benchmark.
> Is there any reason not to switch? I know this means 2X the stack required,
> but since this is log_2 space that seems fine?
